In the last 22 years of tutoring, I have gained valuable insights into practical strategies for aiding children’s learning, which can benefit parents when assisting their children with studies at home. This has come from working with children with varying learning styles and the adjustments required to make the most of each session. I get less push back from my students because I’m not their parents.
Here are some practical tips you can try at home:
1. Establish a consistent routine for studying.
2. Create a dedicated study space that is free from distractions.
3. Break down tasks into smaller, manageable steps for easier comprehension.
4. Offer positive reinforcement and praise for effort and progress.
5. Allow your child space to figure out solutions; it shows that you have confidence in their problem-solving abilities
6. Encourage curiosity and exploration.
7. Stay patient and understanding, adjusting methods to suit your child’s needs. Sometimes, a break is needed to regroup.
These are just some of the techniques that I have found helpful. I hope that they will help reduce the stress that can accompany homework.
