Although we attend a Montessori in the states, I wasn’t expecting to put the girls in one in Taipei but I am so glad I did. This place was recommended by a friend whose child attended here for a couple of years before moving back to the states. They have several locations and this one is their 新生 xinsheng location. They take ages 2.5-6.
First of all, it’s big. It’s beautiful. It’s clean. It’s organized. I don’t think I need to say more than that. I’m already sold based on that.
Secondly, my girls can continue on their own paths in Chinese!!! Small one is writing simple words and big one is reading her harder books in school and doing projects on the side with other kids when it’s outside of “work” time. Perfect.
Their activities everyday involve stuff like Brazilian dance, tumbling, clay, art, etc. It’s everything you’d expect a Montessori to be. YAY!
When you enter the school, all the kids get their hands washed. Then temperature is checked, throat is checked and if you’re not deadly sick or passed all that, then you get to go to school. Those parents who try to sneak their kids in with a fever… no luck… lol.
Teachers know both English and Chinese mostly if you need them to do both. However, we requested that our kids don’t attend any English classes so you can request that as well.
School starts at 8:30am and ends at 4pm. Average cost is about 32,000 TWD a session of about four weeks. Lunch and snacks are provided so you don’t have to worry about bringing any of that.
I will update this review once we’ve finished the session with them and let you guys know further what I find!

I have been following this school’s Facebook page for a while and have been so impressed with them!! What a wonderful place to spend the summer. I hope your girls have a great time with their new friends and teacher! 🙂

Hi,
I would love to see an update of this post. I’m planning on taking my kids to Taiwan next year to either a Montessori school or a regular local Taiwanese school. Any other recommendation beside this Montessori? Thank you!

The year after we went to a non Montessori local school but only got in through connections. If you’re able to find someone in Taiwan to help you get into a local school, that would be most ideal. However, if your child is small (before first grade) I think Mrs. Lam is a great option. If your child is more of a native speaker, I would just inform them of that so they can place your child in the appropriate classroom.
