Japanese Montessori School has a lot to offer!

It is very important to start learning another language before it’s too late or too difficult to master.

Children can naturally learn the Japanese language by a native Japanese speaker, and do this as part of a challenging Montessori environment. 

The Japanese Montessori School is not a language school, it is a Japanese Montessori Immersion School. Students will also learn Japanese culture.

Ms. Hihara used to teach prekindergarten in Seattle.  It was a very diverse school with different cultures and some other languages.  However, all was taught in English.  The different cultures and languages provided a rich learning environment.  The children learned a lot from each other and from other cultures.

Amazingly, children learned English very quickly since they were put in an English speaking environment.

The Japanese Montessori’s mission is to make students understand that they are part of the larger World and they can create Harmony with others. The Japanese Montessori School's goal is for each child to grow to Love peace, nature, himself/herself, and take care of the earth.
