4 Tips For Helping Your Student Stay Motivated in School During COVID

September 13, 2021 by Annie

Keeping children motivated in school can be challenging enough as it is. With so many other things going on, children’s minds may naturally wander when it’s time to sit down and learn. When you add the distraction and stress of the pandemic, it can be even tougher for parents to get their little ones to buckle down and work hard.

However, in order for your child to succeed now and beyond, it’s critical for them to put in their best work at school. If you’re a parent trying to figure out how to keep your child motivated during these trying COVID times, then read on for some of the best motivation tips.

Hire a Tutor

Learning during COVID isn’t just tough for students, it can also be tough for the parents! Most parents were not trained to be teachers, so helping their children with their subject matter can be out of their area of expertise. Consider finding a tutor who can lend a helping hand in ways that you can’t.

They are often capable of explaining the learning material in a way that works best for your child, not to mention a third party removes the often emotionally charged moments that can come with trying to be a parent and a teacher. When your kids have someone to work with who is professionally trained to teach the subject matter, it makes a world of difference in how they retain the information.

Celebrate Their Achievements

One of the greatest motivators for adults and children alike is celebrating achievements. Find a way to recognize the hard work that your children put in, and give them a reward that works best for your family. When parents can find a way to reward hard work, kids are much more motivated to keep up the momentum. In some cases, you may find that a toy may be motivating for them to continue working hard, while for other children a little TV time is all it takes. Do what works best for your family and you can’t go wrong.

Stay Involved

Leading by example is one of the most effective parental strategies out there. The more involved and interested you stay in your child’s studies, the more that they will do the same. Stay interested in what they’re learning about, and monitor their progress. If you seem disinterested or uninvolved in their schoolwork, then they’ll do the same. Serve as the example and they’ll follow suit.

Take Breaks

Some parents who are especially eager for their children to succeed in their studies may push them a little too hard. Remember that it’s important to take breaks as needed. Pushing your child too hard without a breather can lead to burnout and weakened academic performance.

About Me

Hi! I'm Annie and I have 3 kids (all in their teens - yikes!). My mommy blog isn't all about lunches and DIY - it's also about humour. Like how my kids make fun of my texts as if I don't know how to use emojis (I DO!). Now that I have a bit more time - since my kids don't want to hang out with me (teenagers), I have taken up blogging.
