The Work of IMS
The International Montessori Society (IMS) supports Montessori teaching as a scientific way of being committed to laws of nature with children. Established in 1979, it provides resources, tools, and knowledge for conducting this type of true natural Montessori teaching through publications, periodicals, teacher education, workshops and other support services. Following this approach with children brings about their true normal way of being that Dr. Montessori discovered in 1907. She reported the reality of the child’s true nature at that time as having such normal qualities as spontaneous self-discipline, order, and complete harmony with the entire environment.
