Her grandparents had a question: "Don't know how to ask, if you want to be good, you must learn". Therefore, please explain to your child that it is very normal to ask questions of others. If your child does not understand something, ask, do not pretend that you already know. This is the type of ignorance and this is not going to help your child improve.

Encourage your child to boldly ask questions when they do not hear well, do not understand ... to get the most detailed explanation. Teach your child this before 10 years old because childhood is the best time for children to know this.

Have you noticed that we tend to show respect for a teacher or others rather than a child. This may be a reason why children do not dare to stand up for themselves against someone or a problem.

It is important to tell your child that respect is important, but it is also important to stand up for your own opinion. Do not dare to speak out of fear.

For some people, becoming friends is not easy, especially when you have a lot to do, a lot of relationships to take care of.

Demonstrate to your child that you are a trusted friend of the child, avoid scolding them as much as possible, and do not raise your voice when they make mistakes. Take time to listen, talk, and play with your child. This not only helps you understand your child better, thereby teaching the child appropriately, but also helps to bond with the family.

Are you angry with your child and chastising him when his or her grades are not up to your expectations? Are you frustrated that your child is not as smart as the neighbors and classmates? You invest money to get your child into tutoring, but the results your child achieves don't satisfy you? Do you see that something is wrong with your anger or frustration with your child?

Reality has shown that a child who always scores well is not necessarily successful in life in the future.

Are you a bit dissatisfied or skeptical when we talked about this? Take a moment to remember your friends. It can be friends who study elementary, secondary, high school or college friends. Do you notice that most of the students who are good at school, always obey their teachers, their lives and careers often seem flat and peaceful in the "lighten up, darken" style. Meanwhile, those of you who seem to be unique, those who are not in the top, have a very good life now, a very successful career?

So which group are you in and who would you like your child to be in? This depends on how your child is taught. So don't look at the scores that you achieved, look at your abilities, your qualities ... and find out how to teach children effectively.
