Nerusha De Silva

Montessori Co-Teacher

The Montessori method has been part of my life since birth. Having grown up in a Montessori environment, I understand first hand the value and importance of the method and the positive impact it had on my life. The foundation Montessori gave me in my formative years proved useful throughout my educational journey. Post Montessori, I excelled in both Math and Language as a result of the in-depth understanding provided by the method. The general knowledge I gained from the study of biology, botany, zoology, culture, geography and astronomy proved useful not only from an educational perspective but also from a social perspective. More importantly, Montessori taught me to be independent, creative, socially responsible and respectful of everyone and everything around me.

I am grateful for the opportunity VMS has given me to share the knowledge, values and social skills which I gained from the Montessori method and the Montessori environment with the future generation.
