West Miami Montessori Learning Academy

West Miami Montessori Learning Academy is a unique educational institution that follows the Montessori method, emphasizing self-directed learning, hands-on activity, and collaborative play. The school's approach is designed to educate children through the senses and later through abstract concepts, achieved through the Prepared Environment, which allows children to explore and learn at their own pace. The academy employs Montessori certified Lead teachers who inspire children to work at their own pace, alone or with others, by balancing active, self-directed learning with small group collaboration and peer teaching. The school's commitment to providing a diverse, safe, and respectful environment, as well as its focus on the "whole child," sets it apart from other educational institutions. Key features of the school include mixed-age classrooms, student-led learning, hands-on materials and activities, and an emphasis on practical life skills. The school is working towards Full AMS accreditation and is a proud member of the American Montessori Society, demonstrating its dedication to providing a high-quality, child-centered education.
