"Every time we start studying.... My child comes up with some story

The exams are almost here. 

Time is of essence. 

Those parents who know that their children have not studied too much in the past year... Have 
decided to sit and teach their children. 

Of course parents don't have all the time in the world... And they are struggling to find an hour or two to invest into teaching. 

They are hoping to teach... ensure that the child has learnt.... and then get on with everything else they need to do. 

But they get stuck with.... 

"Every time we start studying.... My child comes up with some story... And that is the end of the study session."

Parents think that children are trying to waste time. 

But that is not true. 

What children are trying to do is.....transform INFORMATION into EXPERIENCE. 

A story does just that. 

So allow stories. Steer them towards what you are teaching. 

You will save more time......if you teach a little that will be remembered... Rather than a lot that 
will immediately be forgotten. 

Understand how the brain learns if you are taking on teaching.
