Education means not only knowledge or foundation for future. It is a bridge for children for their future. We should remain this to our children, to study well by saying “if you feel fear for your exams then you will fear more while writing exams”. So if we feel that every exam is useful to improve ourselves and our future then education won’t be burden to children then only they get good concentration on education.
Little break:
We should not count the number of hours studied by our children. We need take care that children should study with interest and concentration. We need to know how much knowledge they gained by studying. We need to create interesting atmosphere in home for the children to get interest for study. Whenever your children inform you that they are suffering from severe headache, then we should judge the cause of their headache that may be continuous studying. We need to observe whether their eyes are getting tired, if so we should take care of children by making them take a break for every hour.
Self revision:
If your children taking break for more time then they should revise themselves whatever they have studied so far. You should never blame your children by criticizing that they didn’t study well. More over you need to encourage them saying “study with more interest then you will sure be the first” and make them understand the real benefits of good study in future. That is if they study well and get good rank then they will get seat in good college. As they study in good college they will get good marks as they got good marks they will be asked by the companies to join them. I mean companies themselves come to them to give job with good salary. By all these benefit of information your children will get motivated and they will get more interest to study. They will understand that for getting good position study is the first ladder to it.
Formulae:
The subjects like mathematics, physics and chemistry contain formulae, if you write those formulae on cards and whenever you are free try to view them and read them. Then you won’t forget them at all in exam as human psychology will remember the viewed things than the things read. Whenever you study, try to study short and easy question and answers first so that you will get some confidence and you won’t stick at only one answer. In maths, physics and chemistry, we mostly get marks by doing problems, so we need to memorize the formulae in your own method or the card viewing method as explain before. Because the main theme of these subjects is put the formulae get the answer. In physics and chemistry we get theory questions and problems. Suppose a question carries 10 marks then 7 marks holds the problem and remaining 3 marks holds the theory question. So we need to concentrate on formulas to solve them easily and gain marks.
Important points and tips to remember the answer:
Some topics take a lot of time to understand and memorize. How much we read then also we cannot remember. So in such situations try to divide the answer into points, then find keywords for every point. Then memorize those keywords. So when you memorize the keywords then you will get the points also. One more tip is, if you are not getting the answer for more time though you studied then try to understand the answer in your mother tongue first - that what is the question exactly and what is the answer for it. If you understand this, you can write the answer in your own words.
Food in time:
Take care while having food. Instead of having more food at a time, it’s better to take food once for 2 to 3 hours. People who feel they are lack of memory are suggested to have omega 3 fatty acids which are available in fruits, fish, egg etc.
Children should have food in time and have enough sleep. They should be away from tea, coffee and drinks. Parents should take care about these. They should instruct children who are studying by lying on bed, watching TV is not correct. Keeping book in 45 degree and studying will does avoid your neck to pain and avoid eyes to strain much.
Doubts clear:
While studying children get a lot of doubts. Those doubts should be cleared as soon as possible. Then only they can study the subject with lot of interest and they will get the subject very easily. If their doubt is not cleared then while studying they will keep on thinking about the doubt and they won’t study with full mind and finally this result less marks.
Don’t ever force your dream:
Encourage and fulfilling the needs of the children are the responsibilities of parents. While they studying parents should not interfere in their studies. They should not force children to achieve goals beyond their capacity. Never compare your children with others. This damages the confidence of the children.
As it is a summer season our body may occur with dehydration. Due to this we may feel sleepy and concentration may not occur to study. So it’s better to have 1 glass of water before studying then all these problems will decrease. While studying sprinkle cold water on the face and hands then make them sit under the fan then they will feel fresh. Don’t sit in a same place and study for more time. You may loose interest. It’s better to move and study in the room. It’s better not to have new dishes at this time. As they may react and your children get health problems like indigestion. Children should sleep on time while exams are going on as most of the children with the exam fear they stay whole night by studying, this is not correct at all because you will feel drowsy while writing exam. Instead of being awake whole night it is better to wake early morning at 4’o clock and study. It is said that whatever you study early morning with fresh mind you will remember more.
