Have a designated study area 
Setting the right environment to help your child concentrate is essential. It could also mean moving distractions such as phones, background noise and adding a restriction on sites. Work together by asking your child what helps keep them calm when studying. Making use of visual aids in the form of educational videos, mind maps and posters can also make it easier for them to grasp concepts that they may be struggling with. Don't forget to encourage them to take 5 - 10 minute breaks to help them refocus. 

Help them set up a schedule

It is easy to get lost in last minute studying sessions that can increase the pressure on your child. Time management is one of the most useful tools to equip your child with to ensure that they complete everything at a normal pace. Help them keep a homework planner that can help them keep track of projects and homework that is due so that they have ample time to complete each task without the stress.

Find ways to make boring subjects fun

We have all had a subject that we found boring, which inevitably lead to us putting it on the backburner. Each child is different. It also means that what holds their attention will differ. When it comes to finding an effective educational plan, think of online resources such as games, videos and study sites that are fun to use but also help your child learn better for whichever subject they need to study for.

Shift the focus to learning instead of performance

Seeing your child do well in terms of grades is something that any parent desires. However, if the sole focus is on what percentage they managed to score and what position they hold in their grade, it could lead to added pressures. Shifting the focus from performance to asking them what they have learnt to test their understanding of a subject will lead to better retention of knowledge instead of them cramming information. Remember to celebrate the small wins as these can be just as important as the big ones.
