Liberty Prep is a one-of-a-kind institution that brings Maria Montessori’s century-old teaching philosophy to Toronto’s downtown core. We believe that the environment children learn in is as important as the materials they use, so we handpicked and renovated two truly unique locations that reflect the character of our downtown Toronto neighbourhoods.

Liberty Prep brings the proven Montessori method to the urban Toronto core, filling the gap between traditional education and the skill set necessary to succeed.

Why Liberty Prep?

The philosophy at Liberty Prep, first and foremost, is based on respect for your child's inner desire to learn and knowledge of her/himself. The Montessori pedagogy was founded on the principle that children given the freedom to develop at their own pace, and choose areas of study that interest them, become adults able to think creatively and with the self-discipline to be successful. 

Montessori alumni including Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Wikipedia's Jimmy Wales and Jeff Bezos, the creator of Amazon credit a Montessori education for their ability to ask the right questions, think analytically, and self-motivate. Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple, believes that Montessori schools are doing a better job of teaching and producing independent thinkers than the traditional system. Elon Musk of Tesla, unhappy with the private school his children were attending, has recently opened a school that includes many of the tenets of a Montessori education.
