How to help your child learn

Any parent wants his child to study only "good" and "excellent", because, as it is logical to assume, the more successful the child at school, the better will be his studies at the university and further work, and the more he will be appreciated by others. However, not all fathers and mothers help their child to cope with learning difficulties, thus contradicting their own aspirations. But to help the child learns, special efforts from the parents are not required.

Talk to your child more

At the heart of everything lies our speech. The better the ability to correctly and clearly formulate your ideas and thoughts, defend and express your point of view, discuss and state the material, the more successful the person will be in all spheres of his activity, especially if these skills developed from childhood.

From the earliest time, try to talk more often with the child, ask what happened in the kindergarten, what he liked on the walk, what cartoon characters he likes, etc. The older the child, the more often it is necessary to touch the child's feelings, feelings, new experiences in conversations. Push the child to express an opinion about the world around him, to a detailed analysis of what is happening around: in the world, in the country, in the city. Try to promote the expansion of the vocabulary and the outlook of the child.

You should never brush it aside for a far-fetched reason, if he asks you any questions. Even if you do not know the answer to this or that question - you are always at hand with the Internet or books. It is unlikely that you will take this too much time, while the child will help broaden his horizons, learn to use literature - all this will help him in school.

Since the earliest childhood it is better to teach the child to read books and use libraries. Now this is especially important, because most people today have a computer with Internet access, which makes it possible to quickly and easily find the necessary materials, while it is necessary that the student is able to find information in books himself, to analyze and compile it based on its story or report, highlighting the main. One of the most significant advantages of this approach is that the child will gradually get used to more reading, expand the vocabulary and his horizons, and this is practically the direct path to high achievement.

Learn about school matters more often

The more you learn about what the child is doing at school, what is happening at this time, what peers and teachers he has, the easier it will be for you to help him in his studies. Try to help the child with homework, of course not doing them for him, but helping to verify their correctness and controlling the timeliness of their implementation.

At the same time, try not to be a tyrant, but to establish a warm and trusting relationship with the child, support him, and do not blame him for poor studies and low grades. This will only cool his attitude toward learning, and not spur interest in it, as many parents think.

Correctly distribute the student's workspace

Track the organization of the child's work place - is the lighting alright, is there enough space for working on your homework, whether it is ventilated, whether there are sources of annoying loud sounds. Also it is worthwhile to distribute the correct time for rest and for study.

If you see that your child is not able to study (too tired, etc.) then do not try to force him to do his homework - it is unlikely that anything will come of it. All people need rest, and in regard to children this is doubly true!

Proper nutrition is the key to successful learning

A lot of research has shown that our brain suffers from malnutrition more than other organs. Therefore, if you notice that the child quickly became tired, irritable, quickly forget the training material, then it is worth paying attention to his diet.

The most important group of vitamins needed by the brain are vitamins B. They are responsible for the work of attention, memory and overall learning ability. To the memory of the child was strong, the following foods should be added to his diet: milk, chicken, liver, nuts, meat, fish, buckwheat, plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. However, do not force the child to eat any product, if he does not want.
