Study shows that parents’ attitudes towards education have a significant influence on their children’s attitudes towards learning. If you are enthusiastic, your child is more likely to be as well.

Motivation, like any other talent, can be encouraged and improved. Children are most motivated when:

1.They find a learning activity is exciting and relevant.

Allow your child to pursue their hobbies and favourite play activities in English as often as possible. Any language ‘work’ you perform at home that is enjoyable, varied, attention-grabbing, or creative can assist your child in preparing for examinations and developing their English language abilities in a natural, stress-free manner.

2.They feel that the learning activity can be accomplished effectively.

It is critical to have appropriate learning activities. It may be uninteresting and demoralising if an activity is much too easy or far too challenging.

3.They have some control over how to do the activity.

Children have varying preferences regarding how they process information. Some like to listen to explanations and debate, others prefer to look at diagrams and drawings, while yet others want to actively explore and create. Keep track of what works well – success breeds motivation.

4.They should receive recognition from someone close to them.

Children, like everyone else, want to be ‘good’ at things and have their parents be proud of them. Praise them for their efforts to generate a sense of achievement and support them when they take “risks.” Assist them in turning mistakes into learning opportunities.
