Learning is an important aspect of life. It is one of the most profound processes one goes through in their life. Education and learning never go to waste. Educational teachers have received technological innovations and many schools continue to promote traditional teaching yet in a modern way.
The problem with such an approach is that not all students can adopt it and fail to fit in the race. Due to this, a gap is formed between their true ability to learn and their performance of learning. And due to which children are then dubbed into the category of slow learners.
Here are some tips to deal with such slow learners and how to help them cope up with others.
1. Praise and reward them:
Motivation works well for slow learners. It helps them to continue their learning and even improve it. It is important to celebrate their smallest victory and also reward them for passing out the milestone.
2. Set realistic expectations and smaller targets:
Set some targets for them, when under particular pressure. It is essential to understand what targets are achievable and accordingly set targets for your kid.
3. Be supportive:
Let’s be honest, all that a slow learner should need is support and to be taught to learn from their failures. They should be motivated to explore and to learn at their own pace until they succeed in that pace itself. Try new things of learning with them.
4. Encourage peer tutoring:
One of the most powerful strategies for slow learners is to introduce them to peers of their age, this will help encourage them and make them think that they belong in it.
5. Encourage multiple intelligence:
If the child displays an interest in any co-curricular activity, it is required to support them, show them that they are capable of much more. This will increase their confidence and make them feel socially accepted and manageable.
