IMSP Podcast: Meet Alumna Anna Šlégrová

Join us as our host, Mariana Bečková, interviews Anna Šlégrová on this week’s edition of the IMSP alumni podcast. Reflecting on what made her Montessori experience stand out, Anna stresses IMSP’s personal touch. Teachers, Mariana and Anna share, take time to get to know their students, encouraging them to pursue their passions. Now studying at the University of Bath, Anna shares how growing up in IMSP’s international environment empowered her to pursue higher education abroad.

Her advice to current students echoes the same sentiment: 

“Enjoy the international environment and find out what you’re interested in [...] and what you would like to do”.

In Anna's own words:

My name is Anna Slegrova, I am 19 years old and I am from the Czech Republic. I have lived in Prague my whole life and I have attended IMSP between the ages of 3 and 9 years old (2005 - 2011), along with my younger sister who is currently 16. I also have a 3 year old sister who is currently attending IMSP. At the moment I am studying Psychology at the University of Bath and I am interested in pursuing a career in clinical Psychology. I enjoy being in an international environment, studying Japanese, travelling and spending time with my family.

Twenty years ago, IMSP opened its door for the first time. This podcast series follows Mariana Bečková — IMSP alumna and graduate of the program — as she shines a light on her fellow Montessori graduates. Celebrating our 20th anniversary, we are taking time to reflect with students who have been with us along the way. Tune in and learn more about their experience in the IMSP classroom and what Montessori means for them today.

Montessori Sensorial Materials Lead to Sensory Awareness

The materials in the Sensorial area of the Montessori classroom are quite unique – they speak to the tactile observer in all of us. When you consider the way humans take in information, you realize how often we use more than one sense to explore. Maria Montessori’s work in the Sensorial environment was designed to take advantage of this tendency. Today, I will discuss the materials featured in the Children’s House classroom (ages 3-6).
