If you find it hard to get your child out the door in the morning in time for school, you aren’t alone. Many parents found the task difficult after the long months under lockdown and confined learning. To help you in this regard, The Tutoring Center, Powder Springs, has some tips below on the matter.
Electronic Devices in the Kitchen
If your student has an electronic device, then there is a good chance they will spend hours at night in bed swiping through social media posts and checking it first thing in the morning.
In addition to helping remove the nocturnal distraction, keeping their gadgets in the kitchen at night is a great way to get them out of bed in the morning. While you might not understand the appeal, needing to get out of bed to check their messages and respond to notifications can be a great motivator for any teen.
A Hungry Stomach
Growing children need food, and a grumbling morning stomach can be something you can work with. If your child has a favorite breakfast food, set a time at which you will be in the kitchen ready to prepare those meals. If your child makes it out of bed and is in the kitchen at that time, reward them by preparing the meal.
Move Their Alarm
It is easy to wake up and hit the alarm until it turns off. However, it isn’t that simple if the clock is on the other side of the room or on the floor.
Consider moving their alarm to a place that requires them to get out of bed and switch it off. The logic behind this idea is, if they are already out of bed to switch off the alarm, then they might as well stay out.
Tutoring in Powder Springs isn’t just for a student who struggles with their school in general. It can also help children raise a B to an A+ or provide a bit of extra homework help in an afternoon.
