Hi there ,


I have had some disappointing experience with innate montessori. Although they do boast about a unique style of teaching and montessori methods, in the end these are just some fancy word for getting more business and making money.

They have hired lot of Filipino and Indian teachers who appears to be unskilled, which was evident whenever we asked for my daughters feedback they always cry about minor things that they are not able to handle (e.g. identifying big vs small). Most of the teacher are not even able to communicate properly in English.

On top of it, they keep a very strict and fearful environment, which is difficult to notice from the outside. As a parent, we think that when a kid doesn’t want to go to school (or cry in the morning when leaving for school) its just a usual tantrum. But then we realise that its not usual when we switched her school about 2 months ago. She is very happy to go the new school.

I think when it comes to choosing a pre-school for your kids, look for transparency on their teaching methods. They might have a fancy room on the outside, but the classroom are in the backs, not a good sign. See if they let you talk to the real teachers who would be teaching your child, thats the best way to judge. There is little point in talking to the principle who’s mostly boasting for business and using fancy terms.

I hope this feedback help if you are looking for a decision when sending your kid to a pre-school.

Hi there ,


My daughter has been in Innate Montessori for more than a year and half. but I have had disappointing realization with this pre-school. Although they do boast about a unique style of teaching and montessori methods, in the end these are just some fancy words for getting more business and making money.

They have hired mostly Filipino and Indian teachers who appears to be unskilled, which was evident whenever we asked for my daughters feedback they always complain about minor things that they are not able to handle (e.g. identifying big vs small). Most of the teacher are not even able to communicate properly in English.

On top of it, they keep a very strict and fearful environment, which is difficult to notice from the outside. As a parent, we think that when a kid doesn’t want to go to school (or cry in the morning when leaving for school) its just a usual tantrum. But then we realise that its not usual when we switched her school about 2 months ago. She is very happy to go the new school and clearly more cheerful after school. She still freaks out when joke her about sending her back to the old school. It may make some sense with hard discipline in Primary school when a kid is able to keep these things in correct perspective, i doubt how it affects the mind of a toddler who is just learning to carry him/herself socially.

I think when it comes to choosing a pre-school for your kids, look for transparency on their teaching methods. They might have a fancy big-room on the outside, but the classroom in the backside is not a good sign. See if they let you talk to the real teachers who would be teaching your child, that’s would give a better perspective on their methods. There is little point in talking to the Principal who’s mostly boasting for business and using fancy terms.

I hope this feedback help if you are looking for a decision when sending your kid to a pre-school.
