However, they should not let their high expectations limit what they can accomplish. If you have a problem, and you are not sure how you can resolve it all, then ask. Do not give up. Students should be taught studying skills to help them cultivate good and effective studying skills. Parents should improve the level of control and care of their children and show more interest and concern in academic work. Parents and teachers should maintain a warm and good relationship with their children and students irrespective of gender differences.
