challenges and problems faced by students in education
Teaching skills in a classroom environment:
I taught at a local college for a few years before becoming a full-time mom. I was
lucky enough to get my teaching degree after having children, but even then I had to
take some time off to raise them before returning to school. As a single mother, I was
struggling to balance work and family life. When I returned to school, I was often
overwhelmed by the sheer number of classes; I had to enroll in many different
courses just to graduate. At the same time, I noticed that not all students were
equally successful. Some students did well while others struggled. While it was hard
for me to learn about all these new concepts, I learned how important good teaching
practices are.
challenges and problems
Most colleges have courses devoted to educating teachers (and parents) about
teaching methods. Here are a few tips for making sure your child does well in class:
• Know what they’re learning. Make sure your kids understand the material they are
being taught. Be knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the topics you discuss! If you
don't know what something means, ask your teacher or go online for help.
• Give positive reinforcement. Praise your child's efforts and encourage him or her to
keep working toward their goals.
• Keep an open mind. Don't let yourself become stuck in old ways of thinking.
Always be willing to change your ways if necessary to fit changing situations.
• Find out where their interests lie. If your kid likes sports, find opportunities to
expose them to the sport -- whether it's playing on a team or watching games. If he
or she loves music, make sure they attend concerts or playlists.
• Help your child discover his or her strengths and weaknesses. Encourage them to
try new things and to develop their talents. Try reading books together, writing down
vocabulary words, or taking cooking lessons together.
• Remember it’s okay to fail. Most kids find it humiliating to receive poor grades or
miss tests. But failure shouldn't stop you from trying again later. In fact, it should
motivate you to try harder next time.
• Have fun! Students who enjoy school do better academically. So make sure you're
enjoying yourself in the classroom -- and that you feel comfortable doing the same
thing outside of school.
• Ask for help. If you need help figuring out homework or completing assignments,
ask a friend, parent, or tutor for assistance.
Working with special needs children:
When we first started homeschooling, we didn’t realize that our son would have any
challenges. He spent his early years crawling around on the floor and eating food off
of the ceiling fan. We thought he was just a little quirky. However, once he turned 2
years old and began speaking, he became much more aware of his surroundings
than ever before. To say that we weren’t prepared for this type of awareness would
be a gross understatement. We knew nothing about autism until the day we brought
home our son.
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) affects people differently, but no two individuals
exhibit symptoms exactly the same way. Because there are so many different types
of ASD, doctors rarely agree on a diagnosis. Even though there isn't a “cure” for
autism, there are treatments and therapies that can help improve the quality of life
for those diagnosed.
Too much homework:
- Students who do not have enough free time to study may resort to cramming
before exams
- Cramming can cause serious mental fatigue and even lead to anxiety attacks.
Lack of motivation:
- Student's lack of motivation may result in a lack of interest in studies and even
drop out of school
- Motivation can be enhanced by making learning interesting.
Poor teaching methods:
- Students may find their teachers unhelpful if they fail to show genuine interest in
the subject matter.
- A good teacher should understand his/her student's interests and help them learn
accordingly.
Lack of facilities:
- Facilities such as a library, labs, internet connection, computers, etc., play a
significant role in facilitating effective learning.
- Lack of these facilities may make a student feel isolated and alienated from others
and in turn, make him/her miss out on socializing.
Absence of guidance:
- Guidance and mentoring are two critical factors to successful learning.
Lack of funds:
It's hard to imagine how we would do our work if no one was willing to fund us.
However, for many people out there who need help with their education, money is
always a problem. Sometimes even those with money have trouble finding funds to
pay for school fees, books, notebooks, uniforms, and transportation costs. In some
instances where schools are able to provide these basic necessities, students don't
have the time to go through the rigorous academic curriculum set by teachers.
Lack of qualified teachers:
Teachers are a vital piece of any educational system; they not only inspire students'
interest in learning but help them understand what they learn. Unfortunately, there
are many vacancies for qualified educators in schools. Many potential candidates
simply cannot find jobs due to lack of experience or training, while others quit once
they get a position.
Teachers who are not committed:
Sometimes teachers leave their positions early, forcing students to take over their
responsibilities. If teachers do stay at their job beyond the normal retirement age,
they often do not show much commitment to teaching. Students may feel they are
being taught by someone less-than-qualified, causing further loss of confidence and
motivation.
No time for children:
Parents and/or guardians of children often don't realize just how much time goes
into raising a child. Children need constant supervision and care, especially when
they start going to school. Parents might have already lost sleep over preparing
children for school, but now they have to deal with waking up before sunrise to
prepare breakfast and lunch for their kids. After a long day of working or studying,
parents also have to cook dinner and supervise homework, among other things.
Unsupportive families:
Most people need family members and friends who will support them in their daily
lives. Unfortunately, some families are not supportive of their children's education.
They might not want their children to attend school because they think they should
spend their free time doing something else rather than sitting in class. Others might
discourage children from attending school because they think their children won't
make good grades and therefore will not get a good career after high school.
The poor quality education system:
In countries where government funding of education is low, quality education does
not seem to exist. Some schools still use chalkboards and blackboards, while others
use computers. A few schools have computers, but almost everyone uses Internet
access instead of online classes.
Limited accessibility to information:
Whether it's a lack of quality teaching materials and equipment or simply a lack of
knowledge on how to teach effectively, students never really have the opportunity to
improve their knowledge of different subjects. Most schools have libraries, and
sometimes students are allowed to check out books for personal study or research,
but rarely are students encouraged to read outside of school hours. There are also
many people who live far away from schools who might not know about the
opportunities that are provided to local students.
