Markham Montessori School

I love this Montessori, my son has learned so much since enrolling at 18 months and now he's 5 years old. He knows how to read long stories 15 pages (a short paragraph a page), math (+, -, x and ÷) and even learned a bit of French! He knows how to write short stories etc. I would give this Markham Montessori 10 stars if I could... Ms. Connie is an amazing teacher and there is nothing bad I can think of to write about this place. I would recommend this place to everyone looking to put their kid into a Montessori!!

I wish I could give this school, and Ms. C., a thousand stars. I can’t speak highly enough of the level of attention, care and training my son, raised during the COVID years, has received from this school. The teacher, probably one of the kindest human beings you’ll ever meet, is authentic and invested in the children that attend the school. The traditional Montessori school was established by Ms. C., more than 20 years ago and truly adheres to Maria Montessori’a pedagogy. Through the program, my son has been able to develop his own initiatives and natural abilities, at his own pace, through practical play.

Prior to attending Markham Montessori School (MMS), my son was anti-social and lacked communication skills due to lack of socialization stemming from the pandemic lockdown. Now, my son is thriving, independent and loves school. Thanks to Ms. C., and her team’s care and patience, my son loves to read, communicates better, knows how to use the potty and partially dresses himself. I mean the teacher and staff are wizards and are incredibly astute in their job and beyond. My partner and I love this school so much that we have focused our home purchase expedition primarily in the Markham area. We have also added my second kid, at just four months old, to the school’s wait list to afford him equal developmental opportunity and access to this sought-after school.

I can go on forever about this school and our MMS community. It’s amazing and rare. Don’t think twice, enrol your child immediately!!!

On a final note, I think Ms. C., and her team should be honoured as National Treasures. Trust me, Harry Potter ain’t got nothing on the magic of MMS.

Ms. Connie is super passionate about children and she is also humble in accepting praise on the amazing montessori guidance and strong academic foundation she instills in each and every child.

Our family is blessed to have both of our boys at her school (since 18 months) and they will both be completing JK, SK and grade 1 at Markham Montessori School primarily because of the strong academic curriculum of reading, writing, math and science.

Don’t recommend. Bad experience not friendly and very expensive.

We were fortunate enough to find Markham Montessori when we moved to Markham. Our child graduated from the school after being given a strong foundation which will last them a lifetime. If you are truly interested in gaining exposure to the Montessori pedagogy, this school should be at the top of your list. Ms. Connie takes great pleasure and pride in setting her students up for success, each of them is taught to hone their capabilities. MMS students do amazing things because they are made to believe it's simply in them to do so.

I like the small class size. I'm sending both of my children to Markham Montessori School and would recommend it to my friends and family.

A gem in the heart of Markham! We visited several Montessori schools in the area and MMS was the best by far. Authentic Montessori with results that show. Thank you Connie!
