These questions cover most, if not, all the bases! If there are any other key questions useful in your situation, be sure to add them. How’s your actual study routine and workflow.How’s your focus/attention/concentration.Below are the main areas I dialogue with students about. It’s easy to get thrown off and ask kids questions that don’t get to the root of the issues. I cannot tell you how important it is to ask the right questions. After 20+ years of working with students, I find myself asking the same key questions over and over in order to help ensure a child is “on the right track.” I’ll share these with you as well as some tips on how to ask in a way best empowers your child. Here I have some insights for you that should give you some clarity. This is fine for a while, but as school becomes more complex, problems can begin to mount. This can be especially confusing when you have a gut feeling that your child hasn’t mastered the skills they need but their ability to compensate is so strong that it masks the challenges. Many kids pick them up naturally, but many others don’t. There are many skills to master as a student, and no instruction book on the topic.
If this sort of conversation leaves you with an uneasy feeling, it probably should! It takes years for most kids to gain a realistic understanding of what it means to be a “student” and your hunch that something’s missing is probably valid. “Yep, I’m positive! I have nothing to do.”
