The need for guidance and responsibility of the adolescent

Even if during primary the student was a motivated child with good results, the teachers from CBSE schools in south Kolkata know that it can happen that in secondary school the situation changes completely. The feeling that he had to face certain difficulties, and the too great pressure of evolution can discourage the students in any English medium school in south Kolkata.

Your child is unmotivated if:

      he is often late for class       he shuts himself in his room or gets angry when you talk to him about school       becomes irritable very easily       he doesn't care that he gave a control paper in which he didn't write anything       it is difficult for him to anticipate what he has to do in the next three days       he feels stressed when he thinks he has to think about his future       he has a headache on the day he has the assessment test       he has a non-existent social life or his social life cancels his school life       abandons any extracurricular activity or, on the contrary, gets involved excessively in all such activities       spends most of his time on the Internet

 

 Establish a clear system of rules!

 The desire to be independent is most often manifested through an essential element: the need to escape school and family constraints, which have become a burden for many teenagers.

According to the teachers from the Best co-ed CBSE school in south Kolkata, two are the most widespread causes that determine the lack of motivation and the failure of second-secondary students: either they do not leave the house enough and close themselves in a virtual world of video games or virtual social networks, thus disconnecting from reality, or they go out too much, their friends and passions affecting their school results. These two extremes into which an adolescent can fall very easily can be avoided by establishing, from the beginning of the school year, some rules designed to balance the relationship between social and school life in English medium schools in south Kolkata.

 If he breaks the established rules, it is better to give him extra tasks than to forbid certain things. Do not deprive him of the rights you have established that he has, but punish him with additional duties. For example, even if he breaks a rule, he is still allowed to go out with his friends, but only after he cleans the house or after he does the shopping and helps his younger brother with his homework. On the other hand, teenagers should not perceive work only as a punishment. Encourage him to know himself through his work, giving him responsibilities that will allow him to build a positive self-image. Allow him to do his lessons together with a friend or a group of colleagues. It is the ideal method of increasing motivation at this age.

 

Help him discover his qualities and personal needs!

 At the Best co-ed CBSE school in south Kolkata, before establishing his professional priorities (choosing a college, or a job), we emphasise the teenager must be guided to discover his strengths, but also his needs, values, personal tastes, and areas of interest. Parents have a decisive role in this stage because they know their children best. To give the best advice, you don't have to limit yourself only to the school results of the teenager. Take into account his passions, artistic or sports interests. For example, if a high school student sings in a rock band, even if you don't necessarily take him seriously, keep in mind that this can be proof of his creativity and perseverance. The transfer in school life of some skills acquired and recognized in another field can be an important factor of motivation.

 Help him turn into a big man!

 As parents, you tend to be permanently involved in your child's future. But you have to be careful how you do it. Teachers from the best CBSE schools in south Kolkata advise you to take into account his wishes, the qualities he has, as well as his school level, trying to harmonize these aspects with his aspirations. Regardless of whether you agree or not with the job he wants to choose, try to be objective and talk to him equally about its advantages and disadvantages. Help him to get in contact with people who practice the job in question, to find correct information about it. Help him, therefore, to turn into the big man he always dreamed of.
