ABOUT TMIS

Since 1984, we have upheld Dr. Montessori's core philosophy of "human development." Founded by Ms. Lam and starting with a kindergarten and MiCasa, we have seen many children excel in academics and social skills, earning significant parental recognition. Research, particularly by the renowned scholar Lillard, shows that Montessori education enhances children's executive functions, teamwork, communication, and problem-solving abilities. TMIS is dedicated to providing a Montessori bilingual program for students aged 6 to 18, fostering an environment of freedom and love to maximize their academic and personal growth.

With the right guidance, the children accomplish much by themselves.

6-12 COSMIC EDUCATION

Dr. Maria Montessori developed a framework for giving elementary school-aged children a vision of the whole universe. As they come to understand the world, they understand their own place in it. Curiosity, energy, and imagination drive children in this age group.

    TMIS offers multipurpose spaces for student clubs and leisure time activities.

    Children at TMIS enjoy a variety of club activities, including fencing, Capoeira play (aka Brazilian martial art), and ball games. Our children love to run and play outdoors in the spacious sports field of Minzu Elementary School, a nearby community partner. More daily physical exercise takes place indoors, regardless of the weather.

  • Prepared Environment

    Every piece of Montessori material was created to aid learning, research, and exploration.

    The moment you step into a classroom at TMIS, you will feel the brightly lit and spacious environment. You’ll see neatly arranged materials, equipment for scientific experiments, and child-size tables and chairs. Children feel at ease in this space, where they are encouraged to think independently and make choices. Their interests expand through participation in fun, learning experiences.

    Facilitated Communication in Cozy Office Spaces.

    TMIS administration and general affairs operate at one end of a 3-meter-wide lane, which extends to the TMIS classrooms at the other end. The office provides rooms where teachers and parents can share information and exchange thoughts, removed. from the classrooms to ensure children stay focused on learning.

  • Self-Learning

    Learning takes place not only at schools.

    Self-Learning

    Learning takes place not only at schools.

    No classroom can hold the answers to all questions asked by children while learning. Neither can the whole truth be revealed to them only through books. The children need to go out, to perceive the world sensorially, and to allow the world to impact them personally.

  • Cultural Environment

    With its tranquility and abundant learning resources, Minsheng Community is an ideal neighborhood to support the growth of TMIS children.

    Both Minzu Elementary School and a branch of the municipal library are in the immediate vicinity. The community’s 25 parks and diverse art galleries inspire children to explore and appreciate aesthetics. Our children also gain diverse experiences at institutions such as La France à Taiwan, Songshan Airport, and Institute for Information Industry.
