What is the difference between Montessori and Regular schooling?

### Response:
A Montessori format of schooling is based on an individual's learning pace. In a Montessori classroom, there are a plethora of activities laid out at the eye level of the child. Each child can pick and choose an activity that interests him or her. The learning progresses based on the child's interests. Children often observe other children practicing other activities, which fosters curiosity and motivates them to try different activities in the Montessori setting.

In a regular schooling environment, the curriculum for the year is pre-decided and the children are supposed to follow the same, hence everyone is expected to learn at the same pace. It is structured around student-teacher interaction and adheres to a time-table.
