Wisdom Tree Education.
A bilingual alternative educational program.
Wisdom Tree Education is a home educational centre where families, children and professionals come together in one space for the purpose of education and socialization.
In a fully bilingual French-English atmosphere, children and parents are supervised by a pedagogical team to provide a high-quality learning environment.
Welcome
Fulfillment, discovery and learning intertwine harmoniously within our non-profit structure, where parents who have chosen an alternative educational model (IEF: instruction en famille) work together to provide educational excellence for their children.
At Wisdom Tree Education, every child is unique, able to develop fully at their own pace while exploring the world around them. Our goal is to help you transform homeschooling into an exciting and rewarding adventure that allows your child to learn, grow and achieve their maximum potential.
The parents, alongside the professionals, guide each child with individualized attention. Their role is to encourage autonomy, creativity and natural curiosity through a warm family environment. To support them in this mission, our passionate teaching team provides advice, helps organize activities and offers tutorials to develop or acquire certain teaching skills.
At Wisdom Tree Education, we offer sensory educational tools and engaging activities to foster your child's holistic development in a warm learning home. Parents and children work closely with the educational team to create a positive learning atmosphere, where love and understanding are the pillars of every stage of a child's growth. Our flexible, personalized programs make education as enriching as it is inspiring.

Teaching methods
Our teaching method is rooted in the principles developed by Maria Montessori, an early 20th-century educational pioneer. This unique approach nurtures each child's innate potential, making them confident, independent and passionate learners. While this approach is perfectly suited to children aged 4 to 6, it also provides the foundation for the teaching method for children over 6, which goes far beyond it.
The pillars of the Montessori method are :
An environment prepared with learning spaces carefully designed to stimulate children's natural curiosity, autonomy, order and concentration.
>> A setting conducive to individual development, with sensory educational materials and activities that invite exploration.
Autonomous learning where respect for the child as an individual capable of directing his or her own learning is placed at the center.
>> Children are encouraged to choose their activities according to their interests, and to work at their own pace.
A fully equipped space with the full range of Montessori teaching materials specially designed to foster concrete understanding of abstract concepts.
>> A hands-on experience that engages the senses, encourages deeper understanding and increased knowledge retention.
Social and emotional development, because Montessori education is about creating balanced, socially competent individuals.
>> Children learn to collaborate, to resolve conflicts constructively, and to develop a sense of mutual respect and a positive educational community.
An observation of the "sensitive periods" during which children are particularly receptive to certain skills.
>> An approach that offers adapted activities and maximizes opportunities for optimal learning.
An education for life that not only prepares children for academic success, but also enables them to acquire practical skills, a sense of personal responsibility and critical thinking.
>> Children are prepared to become competent and compassionate citizens of the world.
