Maria Montessori’s method provides today’s teachers with a large number of new approaches,
ideas and materials for the teaching of writing, reading and grammar skills. The Montessori
method has been used at the Batthyány Lajos Általános Iskola (Batthyány Lajos Primary School)
in Budapest for ten years. This paper starts with Maria Montessori’s short biography. Then it
introduces the Montessori schools in Hungary. It illustrates Montessori pedagogy with practical
examples and ideas rather than with theoretical explanations. It gives insight into how to improve
time management, and how to use different work forms and other organizational possibilities. It
lists the typical materials of Montessori pedagogy for personalized teaching. The article aims to
show the currentness and the advantages of the method. It also aims to raise the readers’ interest
to study and maybe even to try the Montessori method.
