It really was a super bad fit for me.
Now when i look back at it, it is super obvious montissori is great for talented children and those who are able to have dicipline and organize them selfs, without much guidance.
Me myself has always lacked that and always will. This made be fall behind so bad in school that the only way i was able to finish it was because of a private tutor my parents hired.
Now its not _all_ because of the school, it also is my own abilities. I am simply not a smart learner nor very good at problem solving.
But the lack of organization, clear learning paths and a mindset of letting a child try to learn all by him self was super bad for me. It was also clear it benefitted girls a lot more than boys.
Today i really resent everything about montessori, it was a complete failure for me and only let my lack of dicipline/organization and insufficient problem solving skills run my schooling for ten years while everyone in the school thought i would just magically develop abilities i lacked on my own.
