Thank you very much. I'm happy to help.

Thank you for this video. It was very informative. Could you clarify something for me? did you say that children of very structured parents won't fit very well in a Montessori school? or won't feel well in a Montessori school? I was just not able to get that idea very well. Thanks in advance.

Montessori schools actually do have a very clear structure, but within this structure, the pupils have more freedom. This approach might not work if the parents want everything to happen in a certain order at a specified time, or when they feel that independency of their child is not very important. In the end, all children in all schools learn the same basics.

Go crazy! Yeah, we did Montessori for our daughter but really, what a poor result ... for her. In hindsight, a deeply grounded school in the community with longstanding staff, like a town's typical Catholic school (which has the benefit that it is not managed by the township but by the school's own foundation and financed by central government), seemed for us the very best. In a sense, the system of governance, the teachers and management of the school itself, the all round atmosphere all play a role. So, go visit a few local schools! To me: a well grounded team always excels! How so: there is a shortage of teachers, so some schools move into a 'roaming' educator mode. A more permanent staff can often provide more stability - the child gets to know all the teachers even after a few years as they are the same! And they, collectively, get to really know the child. Then, to me, the system is secondary. Success! (and search years in advance! - our local Catholic classical school is full after two years of age ..... they do not have to accept more.).

Hi! Thank you for sharing your experiences. I am happy to hear that you were happy with the local catholic school. It is indeed a good idea to visit multiple schools and compare, as each school is different. Parents should also inform themselves well about the school application procedure, as this varies per city. In more and more cities they have a school lottery and you can only apply once your child is 3 years old. Also the experiences with montessori, catholic or other types of school vary from school to school, and from family to family. The bigger towns and cities have multiple versions of each, and you can't really speak of the 'town's typical Catholic school', for example. And, some montessori schools are also more than 100 years old. You'll see that a lot of research is required. I am happy to help with this.

Thank you for this video! Very helpful! When would you recommend to start thinking about the school in Amsterdam? At 2,5 yo?

Dear ​Porosenokify, have schoolwijzer.amsterdam.nl/en/. Most international schools have a waiting list. I am happy to help with this process. You could book a video call through the New2NL website: new2nl.com/families/. Good luck with everything!
