Is your child not doing well in academics despite going to tuition everyday? Are you thinking that your child is stupid just because other children are excelling in academics while your child is not? Are you thinking of taking your child to a therapist to get their brains sorted out? Parents are now beginning to ask themselves the latter question because their child is not doing well academically unlike children in the neighborhood. But don’t you think it is a bit too early to think about the mental health of the child when he/she seems to be perfectly fine in other activities apart from academics? You may ruin your child’s future by taking one wrong decision. If your child is not doing well despite going to group tuition, maybe try home tuition for a change to see if that works?
One of the founders of Monkpedia saved a boy from going into therapy even though he had all such problems mentioned above. How you ask? Simple, by giving him attention and time to understand topics and concepts. What many parents fail to realize is that every child, just like every adult, is different from one another. They have their own strengths, weaknesses, and pace of doing things that just need to conditioned accordingly. With the absurd schooling and education system that we currently have, that is not going to be happening anytime in schools (especially government schools) because the teachers rush through the syllabus as it is the only thing they are concerned about. The tutors also have their hands full in group tuitions as they cannot pay attention to every child given the time restrictions and the number of children in the group, not that their teaching methods are convincing anyway. So to summarize, schools are too fast-paced for the average child, and tutors in group tuition do not get a chance to address the doubts of a child due to a large number of students they have to help with their homework. So maybe try home tuition as one last (hopefully not) method before sending your child to therapy?
One of the key reasons behind Monkpedia’s existence is to provide extra attention to students in order to guide them to success. Our slogan Your Dreams, Our Mission is not just for show, we truly mean to set guiding children to their dreams as our mission. For that, we provide them education comprising not just of knowledge about the syllabus, but also general knowledge, current events, and skills that will make them independent and reliable beings. There have been and still are successful figures who also were just like the boy, slow learners in their youth. It has become a necessity to provide students extra attention as what they are learning in school is taking them nowhere, this is coming from a group of fresh graduates of this education system. This education system has only had a negligible change in the last two decades or so as schools are mass producing clerks instead of knowledgeable students. Give your child the attention and time, and see the results they bring you in the long term just like the successful figures have. Just have a look at Albert Einstein, who would have thought that one of the legends in the field of Physics was a slow learner in his youth?
