• The Ekya Early Years campus caters to both the
  Montessori and Kindergarten methods of teaching
  and learning.
• Montessori method of teaching The teacher acts
  as a facilitator in the classroom, assists and
  role models to the children the techniques and
  skills that are required to work with the
  Montessori materials. Their role is to stimulate
  the childs learning while allowing the child to
  explore each level at his/her own pace, thus
  encouraging individuality and independence in the
  children.
• Kindergarten method of teaching The role of a
  kindergarten teacher is to impart learning
  through instruction time, collaborative learning
  and the use of worksheets that facilitate
  significant concepts to the children. Children
  learn in larger groups and emphasis is laid on
  formal math, general science and language skills
  at this age level. Teachers monitor students
  learning with constant facilitation and feedback
  during the learning process.
• At Ekya, the educational experience is focused
  towards developing a sense of curiosity and
  inquisitiveness in a child.
