Welcome Our School
“We have in our hands, the seed of change”
Carmen Sánchez,
Fundadora Sevilla Montessori School
A wonderful Montessori space in Seville.
A school, cared for and adapted to children. In Sevilla Montessori the spaces are prepared both physically and psychologically in which the child can find everything he needs for his process of self-construction and development. We have created a space in which the ideal conditions for well-being exist and so that its environment contributes to cognitive, physiological, social, and emotional development, and also serves as didactic material to transmit the principles of our method.
Our history
The beginning of this project in 2015 was a beautiful legacy that the founder and CEO of Seville Montessori School wanted to leave their children in her hometown, since there was no Montessori school, either in the capital or in the province of Seville.
When Sevilla Montessori School was born, everyone involved felt they wanted it to grow. We focused on our vision taking into account our mission.
Later in 2016, Sevilla Montessori School decided to move to the current center with larger, beautiful and welcoming facilities for our children; due to the support and demand of families. All families trusted our team and wanted to grow with us. We felt it was necessary the need to give our children the education they had been claiming these two years. And we wanted to advance to Elementary education.
In addition to this stimulus, we consider that a Montessori school has continuity, so to speak, the method is perfectly created to reach High School education and University Levels. We fully trust that the method and families are a great incentive for us; They are the engines that drive us to continue growing.

With more than 15 years of experience in the educational field, and the last 10 years dedicated to Montessori methodology, I have worked and lived in various international contexts, including Spain, Italy, France, Switzerland and Canada, acquiring a global and enriched vision of child development.
I am the founder of the Sevilla Montessori School, where I currently serve as director and manager. My work focuses on consolidating the stability of this educational project and leading the implementation of our initiative for the Secondary stage, always under the approach of a holistic development of the child that addresses both their physical, emotional and spiritual well-being.
I am also a member of the Board of Directors of the Spanish Montessori Association (AME), contributing to the promotion and dissemination of this pedagogy at a national level.

I have experience with students of all ages, in Mexico, Canada, USA and Spain more focused on the primary stage in my last years in Dallas, Texas where I can focus on the Montessori educational method, maintaining a comprehensive, spiritual and cosmic vision of child development.
I realized that the human being is fascinating at any age, I am passionate about reinventing myself every day to ensure that my students have a successful educational experience. After two years as an elementary teacher in Dallas, Texas, I got to know Montessori philosophy closely through a teacher at my university. I was immediately attracted to the method as it is a comprehensive education with a spiritual and cosmic vision for the full development of the child.

I have been teaching English as a foreign language for 12 years in Spain, South Korea and Chile, and have a passion for helping children reach their full potential. Motherhood sparked my interest in the Montessori method and since becoming a mother I have read extensively on this, and gentle parenting techniques. I have enjoyed watching my daughter thrive, and now she is a happy member of the infant community here in Sevilla Montessori School.
As a parent and a professional I work with the words of Dr. Maria Montessori in mind, ¨Never help a child with a task at which he feels he can succeed.¨
I spend my free time with my family, studying Spanish, and enjoy cycling, swimming and reading.

“Montessori is a philosophy of life that begins with the transformation of the adult, which will therefore be reflected in the child. It is a way of understanding the world from respect for ourselves, others, our environment, in short, the universe. This is reflected in the way in which the adult addresses the child, from a position of equality and duality, where both parties are necessary in equal measure.”
