玛利亚·蒙台梭利生活时间为1870-1952。她是意大利教育家，并对当今教育学影响深远。她的教育方法在全球广为流传。许多教育学人士认为，她的教育体系最适合儿童教育。蒙台梭利还是一名医生，哲学家以及慈善家。曾三次获得诺贝尔和平奖提名。
Montessori was the first woman to graduate from the University of Rome’s Medical School. She trained as a psychiatrist 1 and was interested in educating the "mentally retarded 2" and others with learning difficulties. She had great success when her class of “problematic” 8-year-olds had above-average scores in state reading and writing tests. This was described as "the first Montessori miracle."
蒙台梭利是首位毕业于罗马医学院女学生。她是一名神经病学家，并逐渐对“低能”学习障碍教育产生兴趣。在阅读和写作课程中，8岁智障儿童成绩高出平均分，蒙台梭利研究取得重大成功。首个“蒙台梭利奇迹”出现。
Hearing about Maria's achievements, Rome's government asked her to start her own children’s school. In 1907, the Casa del Bambini opened in a poor neighbourhood of Rome. Montessori experimented with a philosophy she called “spontaneous self-development”, which meant letting children develop and learn at their own pace. Her methods once again met with great success. More schools opened and she gained worldwide fame.
获悉玛利亚取得重大成功，罗马政府希望她成立自己的儿童学校。1907年，“儿童之家”在罗马贫苦郊区建成。并不断尝试“自我发展”教育法，让儿童按照自己的节奏学习。她的方法再一次取得成功。多所学校相继开办，玛利亚享誉世界。
Montessori was exiled from Italy because she refused to allow her schools to turn children into soldiers. She lived in Spain until the Spanish Civil War broke out in 1936. In 1939 she moved to India and spent ten years working on training courses, which are still seen as innovative 3 today. She traveled the world lecturing until her death in 1952.
因拒绝将学校儿童培养成士兵，蒙台梭利被逐出意大利。1936年西班牙内战爆发之前，玛利亚一直呆在西班牙。1939年，蒙台梭利前往印度，利用十年时间研究培训课程，现如今，她的教育方法仍具创新性。在玛利亚于1952年去世之前，一直环游世界进行演说。
