Parents play a big role in their children’s study
habits. Good parental supervision can lead a child to study effectively.
Studies have shown that good studying skills are correlated with good academic performance.
It is, therefore, essential that parents take charge in inculcating good study
habits to their children.
So, here are some study tips for parents in order
to improve your children’s study habits:
Be
their partner. Parents oftentimes make the mistake of scolding their children
in order to study. In so doing, children associate their parents’ reminders
aversively and would rather bum around. Try to be their partner when it comes
to their academic activities and tell them to study in a nurturing tone.
Allot
a study place for them. The bedroom may be too comfortable for your children,
while the living room can be too distractive. Getting family room additions and setting up one to be a library or a study
room can be effective for your children where they can do their homework,
review their lessons, or simply read their books without any distraction.
Maximize
study time. Maximizing study time involves just studying, and not distracting
your children. Do not serve food while studying. Moreover, put away toys and
other distractions aside.
Reward
their good behavior. Children must see studying as desirable behavior. Reward
them after a successful study session. Let them out to play and emphasize that
you let them play because they have studied well. This would form an
association between studying and reward and would encourage them to repeat that
behavior.
Remember
that they are still children. Allow them to play and enjoy themselves. Parents
must not burden their children with so many expectations for excellence. These
expectations, instead of being helpful, may actually be a source of frustration
for them. Children succeed, not in a high-pressure environment, but with a
nurturing, encouraging one.
The school is not the only place where children can
study effectively. The home can also be a good venue for learning, provided
that parents do their responsibilities in guiding their child to study well.
