How do we work?

The Montessori environments are spacious and open to encourage children to move freely and decide how to work. Much of the acquired learning is done in motion. That is why we don't limit children when they are working; they are not forced to sit, but also to be horizontal (on the floor) or vertical (standing up).

Freedom of movement

The ages mix favours the children’s personal development, and can develop skills such as empathy, responsibility or leadership that prepare them for their social environment. The development of these skills is carried out by training what we call grace and courtesy. According to the Montessori pedagogy, movements made by the child should be smooth, precise and harmonious. Grace gives the child safety to move in space. Courtesy refers to the interest towards others, understand others needs and learn to respect them. To know how social structures works to interact in their environment. Those lessons give autonomy to the child, provide them with vocabulary and guide them towards social regulations.

Development of social skills

One of the Montessori pedagogy values is to develop an education for peace. The goal of Maria Montessori was not only to facilitate learning. Its fundamental basis is to educate for peace, convey the non-violence teaching to children, the simplicity in the small details of everyday life and to respect others. She considered that showing children that way would help us to have a better world free of wars and hardship. On the other hand, our children work individually but in a working community. It should be called like that because it dignifies the work, since they are little they feel that they are working, not playing. Eventually, they can see the benefits in going to work, so in the future they do not perceive the job as a negative but as a pleasing activity. They are able to respect the co-workers’ job and solve their conflicts on their own. We also show them habits such as hygiene, cleaning and environment care (plants, insects...) which will encourage their autonomy and environmental awareness.

Skills for living and respect for the environment

Children use their senses to integrate their knowledge. The curricular materials used in the Montessori environment are sensory and designed for learning through a comprehensive immersion taking advantage of all its capabilities. Music, art and creative expression are also part of the sensory development; they are located in the different environments using the available materials.

Learning through the senses

It establishes a holistic world focus and educates children in peace through the interdependence awareness and the sense of gratitude, by the inherited knowledge of other cultures. This cosmic education provides the child a global sense of the functioning of the world, its nature and laws, as well as geography, mathematics, science and language, generating an interest in discovering and inquiring into this knowledge

How will your child will learn with Montessori

A customized program according to the child interests: people grow at their own pace. Therefore, learning should be adjusted to their needs, thus allowing the children to develop according to their priorities, guiding them and motivating them to learn in a natural way. Montessori education is challenging and promotes independence and discipline. Its personalized learning approach is ideal for the majority of children, including those who are motivated in learning with high academic level and like to choose their own work.

What parents think about our school

Jillian

Envié a mis dos hijos a la escuela Sevilla Montessori mientras vivíamos en España durante 2 años. Ellos lo amaron. Mi hija fue a una escuela AMI en los Estados Unidos y la enviamos aquí porque sabíamos que seguían el mismo plan de estudios. Todos los guías fueron increíbles y es obvio que realmente se preocupan por sus estudiantes. Pudieron proporcionar actualizaciones sobre cómo les estaba yendo a mis hijos en el salón de clases, tanto social como académicamente, ya sea a través de un correo electrónico o poniéndose al día rápidamente después de la escuela. Carmen, la directora del colegio, también es fantástica. Ella siempre está pendiente de cada estudiante y está al tanto de todo. Ella aborda los problemas y se asegura de que los padres sepan lo que está pasando. Virginia, ella trabaja en la oficina de la escuela, siempre me ayudó con cualquier pregunta que tenía y respondió muy rápido a los correos electrónicos.

Poder dejar a mis hijos que se desarrollen libremente y que respeten su ritmo e intereses de verdad es algo que me hace feliz no solo a mí sino a ellos. Soy maestra y ojalá este tipo de educación fuera la que impulsara este país. Tienen cocina propia. Aunque no era muy partidaria de que mi hijo comiera en el cole, a día de hoy he de decir que estamos muy contentos tanto con los alimentos que forman el estudiado menú (está comiendo cosas además sin que le fuercen, no como suelen hacer en otros comedores) como que adquiera hábitos de autonomía y cuidado personal. Tras años han ido formando un muy buen equipo en este centro. Invitaría a los demás a conocer el cole, a mi me enamoró su pedagogía nada más verlo y hablar con las guías que con tanto cariño tratan a los peques.

Siempre diré que Sevilla Montessori School fue el gran trampolín de mi hijo pequeño. El nació, tras un embarazo muy complejo, prematuro y con una hipotonia muscular de origen desconocido, habiendo tenido que asistir a sesiones de atención temprana semanalmente desde el mes de vida. Mi pequeño comenzo a acudir a su cole recibiendo el alta definitiva en el primer trimestre y no necesito ninguna sesion más, ya que la atención, cuidados y manera de trabajar por si solas consiguieron ser estímulo suficiente para que alcanzara los items propios de su edad a la vez que el resto de sus compañeros. Me encanta el respeto que el Colegio tiene por cada uno de sus alumnos, hecho que se traduce en muchos aspectos entre ellos saber motivarlos de forma individual, saber esperarlos cuando es preciso, acompañarlos y observarlos, porque todo (eso también lo aprendi yo del cole) tiene un por qué. Nosotros por motivos familiares ya no estamos allí, y las profesoras actuales de mi hijo alaban cualidades en su comportamiento en clase que claramente tienen su origen en Sevilla Montessori School como son la capacidad de concentración, la autonomía, y el respeto y el cariño con el que el niño se relaciona con sus compañeros además de las destrezas en motricidad fina y gruesa tan importantes para el desarrollo de habilidades posteriores. Siempre, siempre, siempre llevaremos en nuestro corazon a Lidia, a Amelia, a Paula... Fue un placer forma parte de un proyecto tan bonito.
