Program: Montessori-integrated PYP IB Program

International Montessori School of Latvia is a candidate school* for the PYP. This school is pursuing authorization as an IB World School. IB World Schools share a common philosophy- a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education- that we believe is important for our students.

At the International Montessori School of Latvia we believe that all teachers are language instructors.  

Language is more as a creation by nature. It is a creation of intelligence and has a social function in our life. 

At IMSOL we create a challenging and inspiring multilingual environment where the language of instruction is English.

TESTIMONIALS

My child attended the school for nearly a year, and I consider it one of the best international kindergartens in Riga. The teachers take excellent care of the kids and follow the authentic Montessori curriculum. Their primary focus is on fostering independence in the children and enhancing their linguistic skills. The teachers also guide parents, suggesting activities that help shape children's behavior. I am genuinely pleased with Pirmie Soļi.
My child is in her second year at this school, and we've been really impressed with both the level of organization and the quality of teachers. The day is nicely structured, and the atmosphere is calm and cozy. The teachers really know my child as a kid and as a learner. They prepare engaging experiences and meet each kid where they are in their learning. A concern I had was continuing my daughter's development of English as native English speaker in a Latvian school. I've found this to be a huge advantage of Montessori- the individualized educational experience. The English teacher makes lessons that fit the needs of kids at each level to encourage their development. The (Latvian) classroom teachers are also very experienced and skilled in working with kids learning Latvian as a foreign language like mine. My daughter has made a lot of progress in her comprehension of Latvian. I would absolute recommend this school for international families.
Оба моих сына посещают эту школу. У меня есть опыт других двух частных садиков, поэтому мне есть, с чем сравнить. Причины, по которым я с уверенностью отвожу детей именно сюда это: -Внимание педагогов и руководства садика к любым вопросам, связанным с ребенком. -Помощь ребенку в мягкой адаптации решение любых ситуаций во время всего учебного года в диалоге с родителем. -Ребенок в 5 лет меньше, чем за год стал поддерживать диалог на английском с любым человеком. -Сочетание дисциплины и свободы, которое помогает ребенку учиться с удовольствием. -Разносторонние развитие в течение дня. -Хорошее питание и частые прогулки на свежем воздухе. -Прекрасное руководство и коллектив воспитателей!
