About us

Many educators—teachers, parents, guardians and child-carers—are interested in Maria Montessori’s ideas and methods. The aim for Via Montessori is to be a welcoming online community for those who believe in the rightness of Montessori educational values and the effectiveness of her educational method.

The web site is comprised of activities and articles; activities are recipe-style format Montessori-inspired presentations that can be directly given to children; articles are for sharing knowledge, ideas and experiences — and to debate just how to deliver the Montessori method in today’s world.

The site’s material is also cross-posted on Medium.

Submissions

Teachers, parents, guardians, child-carers: you are invited to share your own activities and articles on the site. Please send them to roberta.frosolini@via-montessori.org, or if you have a Medium account, submit them to the Medium Via Montessori publication (see how to). Let’s excite each other and in turn our bambini!
