Due to their inability to focus in class<\/em>, students’ retention of information has changed dramatically. Staying focused<\/strong> in class is the most effective way to maintain consistently good grades<\/em> because the student will not have to cram at the last minute, scrambling for all the notes and information they missed while dozing off.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While it may appear impossible to stay motivated in the classroom due to the buzzing phone or silly friends, our Vancouver Tutors<\/strong><\/a> have developed some helpful ways to ensure the best possible work.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

First and foremost, turn off the phone. Multitasking<\/strong> is a difficult skill to master<\/em>, especially in school. Using your phone during class only causes gaps in your notes and information retention<\/em>, so avoid distractions and turn off your phone. Using your phone is a source of distraction for you, the teacher, and your friends.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stuart Shanker, a research professor of philosophy and psychology at York University, agrees and believes that children are bombarded<\/em> with so much easily accessible stimulation<\/strong> that they don’t know how to relax and feel calm.<\/span><\/p>\n

To that end, our Vancouver tutors<\/a><\/strong> advise that lists of what should be accomplished within that day be created for the student to feel more structured. These should be realistic goals<\/strong> with some breaks scheduled for the goals to appear tangible rather than terrifying and impossible.<\/span><\/p>\n

This can be done in the classroom to promote focus and make a list of how schoolwork<\/strong> should be divided throughout the day<\/em>. Try to incentivize class participation<\/em> with your children. Determine how many times they should raise their hands. If the idea makes them nervous, start small and gradually add another until they feel comfortable, proud, and participating.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Rona Kornan, a grade school teacher, can always tell the difference between students who enjoy participating<\/em> and those who are not paying attention<\/strong>; however, not all students enjoy raising their hands<\/em> in class. She says, \u201csome of the brightest students I know will freeze if I call on them because they are nervous. Other students, on the other hand, clearly are not paying attention<\/em> and perform poorly on tests and schoolwork. I’m sure they could master the ability with a bit of motivation<\/strong> and consistent work<\/strong> to stay focused<\/em>. All it takes is a lot of practice\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n
