Click to get the Free Parent Guide: 3 Huge Mistakes (Even Smart!) Students Make in Exams and Assignments - and how to fix them immediately so your teen confidently achieves their best ever grades.
___
So many students THINK they're studying hard, when actually they're just staying busy and FEELING productive.
This is a recipe for disappointment when the results just don't seem to match their hopes or expectations,
and potentially - if that disappointment means they then believe they need to study even harder - burn out, disillusion, or defeat.
In this episode you will learn:
- The oxymoron that will save your teen from wasted time and effort.
- How to turn energy-sapping 'activity' into effective active learning.
- The productivity illusion that creates a false sense of security.
- When it might be better to take a break - and how this can actually contribute positively to your teen's life balance AND results.
