salary of a Montessori teacher in Kolkata?

We honestly believe that no salary can truly compensate for the value that an early years educator adds to young children they impact. The remuneration also varies greatly between institutes and schools and individual capabilities of teachers also determine the salary. Having said that, it is true that preschool and high school teachers in Kolkata are typically paid lower than most metro cities in the country. An IIMTT graduate is at the top of the class in remunerations though and can typically expect to earn between Rs 1-3 lacs per annum.


What is the Montessori approach?

The ideals of Montessori for working with children are based on a holistic approach that starts at birth (or as young as possible) and builds up as children grow more mature over the years. Properly understood, it has the benefit of working very well for a large variety of children. It is an entire system that has been checked and can be applied as a whole or in part for the last 100 years. Try it you should find that it also works for you.

What is the difference between Montessori and other approaches to education?

The Montessori Method is characterised by the offering of a prepared environment: clean, pleasing in appearance, transparent and true, where each aspect exists to promote the growth of the child for a reason. Mixed-age children who are split into 3-year periods are part of a Montessori classroom. In the classroom, this clearly promotes socialisation, empathy and harmony between them.To provide them with the keys to discovering our environment and improving basic ... cognitive skills, children work with scientifically engineered structural materials. The materials are organized in a scientific manner to encourage the child to self-recognize the mistake and become responsible for his/her own learning. Montessori follows a very different approach to traditional education. You can read more about it here. Read more
