Signs your child is better off learning remotely

Distance learning is not the same format in which children learn in quarantine. In fact, what was observed in schools in the spring and what can happen again is self-preparation. Because there is no clear program, knowledge control, additional materials.

But there are children who, in general, find it easier and more convenient to study remotely. Of course, with the right approach, when it's not just sitting at home, but a full-fledged education.

We will tell you in which cases it is better for a child to study remotely.

1. Difficult peer relationships

Many adults remember school with horror, because they are faced with misunderstanding or even aggression from their peers or older children.

If your child finds it difficult to build relationships with the school community, it may not always be a good solution to just change schools. It is quite possible that he is better and more comfortable studying at home.

At the same time, the child must have a social circle, because socialization, whatever one may say, is necessary. For example, they can be buddies in creative or sports sections.

2. The child is often sick

In such a situation, he often misses school, does not receive the necessary education at home, and constantly lags behind in school. With such a state of health, it is better to provide him with full-fledged home distance learning.

For a child at home, teachers draw up an individual plan according to which he learns the material. And minimizing stress is better for overall health.

3. The child is bored at school

He may be psychologically more mature than his peers or more intellectually gifted. And then he has no motivation to sit in the classroom and wait for the rest to "chew" the teacher's material.

If the child is clearly gifted, he should have his own training program that will stimulate and develop him, and not inhibit.

4. The child does not have time for anything other than school

In addition to the lessons themselves, there is also time spent on the road (sometimes it can be 2 hours or more a day), class hours and other activities that the child does not need and are not interested in. At the same time, he has neither the strength nor the time for hobbies, hobbies, sports or creativity.

As a result, the child loses motivation both to study and to other activities, because he simply does not have the strength and he does not see the point in what he is doing.

If a child is professionally involved in sports or some other field of activity, then he definitely needs a separate training plan and distance education.

5. The child has already chosen a university and a profession

In this case, he needs to focus on certain subjects and study them in depth, and the rest - rather superficially, in order to have general knowledge, but not spend too much time on it.
