They tell their child to study hard and to take school seriously, but that usually isn’t enough. They then may resort to nagging, scolding, or threatening, which only makes things worse. Many loving parents had trouble in school themselves and really don’t know the solution to their child’s problems. Kids need three things to turn around a losing streak in the classroom: 1) They need to be motivated, to be given reasons why they should study and work hard. 2) They need to be shown that they can be successful if they do this. 3) And they need to be shown how to do it: what studying and working hard in school actually means. This book will address all three issues. But by itself, it is only a book, a bunch of information buried between two pieces of cardboard. To get the knowledge out of the book and into the head and heart of your student, a facilitator is needed. That facilitator is you.
