Students find it sometimes hard to keep up with school and
learn everything they are supposed to, especially when the subject they are
learning about presents no interest to them. As parents, we should track a t
all times the scholar’s activity and encourage them through various methods to
learn more.
Getting a tutor
When ever you see you child can’t handle one school assignment
and you can’t help him either with it, them you should really consider getting
a tutor. Classrooms are meant for all students and so are the lessons. Teachers
can’t stay behind for the ones that did not understand the proper explanation
of a lesson because they are not allowed to do it in school. They have to
follow a strict schedule for each of their lessons. But, your child might not
be gifted for every school subject and it is normal. You can even ask a teacher
to teach him privately when the child needs it, and he will have full attention
and more explanation until he understands.
Do not get mad
If children have failed in school they are upset already.
But if they come home and truthfully admit it, and you start yelling at them,
then they will get the wrong idea. First they might understand that when they
tell the truth bad things happen to them. And secondly they might loose all
interest in school. if you don’t get mad but just sad, they might want to make
you happy by improving their performances.
Reward good performances the child
achieves
This has two sides: a good one where your child gains
interest in school partly because he realizes it pleasures you and a bad side
where your child will become motivated in all things by material rewards. So be
careful when rewarding your child, and if you do make it subtle.
Healthy life
A healthy life is good for us all not just for children. If
he gets enough sleep, if he eats right and if he is emotionally balanced (that
means no fight at home in front of him, no unsolved conflicts with him and no
unfulfilled desires for which he did not understand the reasons why they couldn’t
be done) the chances are that he will perform better in school.
Children by nature love competition and school is a
competition. They can do well in school as long as we know how to help them.
