The goals of a Montessori education are preparation for life and love of learning. Such an education focuses on encouraging the child s natural desire for learning and finding order in his or her world. Dr. Montessori also discovered that in a properly prepared environment, the child spontaneously explores learning with the tools of inner discipline and outer freedom. The child prefers work over play, shows long and sustained concentration and develops a social life based on mutual helpfulness.
