Right here, we're talking about how can parents support their child's learning by creating a conducive home environment, encouraging positive attitudes towards education, and collaborating with teachers.
00:11
So parents, now this is a principle that i firmly believe, and that it is their primary responsibility.
00:17
It is the primary responsibility of parents to educate their kids.
00:21
It is not the primary responsibility of the teacher.
00:25
The teacher, you know, for us as teachers, a student comes into our life for a brief period of children.
00:30
Time and then they leave and you know we love them we care for them we want the best for them but it is not our responsibility to raise them so the parents how can they support their child's learning first of all by understanding that they themselves are the primary responsible caretaker of their child and not us not their teacher so that's the first thing now so i'll say number one that's they're primarily responsible now number two this is a big principle which is to pay attention most teachers, or sorry, most parents these days, maybe not most, but many, don't pay attention to their kids.
01:07
They're too busy on their devices.
01:09
The children are placed in front of a tv or placed in front of an ipad, and the ipad is raising the kids because it's the one who's paying attention to the kid, not the parents.
01:19
So number three, pay attention to them.
01:22
After recognizing that it's their primary responsibility, pay attention to them.
01:27
And then i would say foster what's called a growth mindset, so a growth mindset says that you are rewarded for the amount of time that you put in, right? it's not the case necessarily.
01:39
Now, we all have talents.
01:40
We all have intelligence in varying degrees.
01:43
But there's a problem with people who say, oh, well, i'm just not good at this.
01:50
Well, maybe you just think that you're not good at this and you're stuck in that fixed mindset.
01:55
Maybe if you actually tried to get better at it, you would get better at it.
01:58
Right? and it's a sense of laziness.
01:59
It's a sense of discouragement in a sense of like, you know, low self -esteem or whatever you want to call it that says, oh, i don't want to do that.
02:07
So i'm just going to quit because i'm not any good at it.
02:10
Right.
02:10
And that's fostering that growth mindset that says, you know, like that old phrase, you know, whatever you put your mind to, you can accomplish...
