Essential Life Coaching Advice for Children
Returning from my twelve-year-old stepdaughter’s parents' evening offered an enlightening experience. During this hour, her teachers provided some invaluable life coaching advice that greatly impacted her. Here’s what we learned.
Bright but Underperforming
My stepdaughter, Taryn, is exceptionally bright and well-behaved. However, she tends to do just enough to get by, rather than giving her studies her all. Before the parents' evening, we reviewed her school report, which she considered strong due to her above-average performance and recent exam results.
Despite this, her mother and I were concerned about comments from her teachers: Taryn rarely asks questions, doesn’t participate much in class discussions, and often rushes her homework. Even though her exam results were good, we knew they could have been better with some revision. When we pointed this out, Taryn was upset, thinking we were being unfair.
Lessons from Teachers
Taryn enjoys sports, participating actively in netball and athletics. Her first meeting was with her sports teacher, who surprisingly addressed our concerns. She asked Taryn why she gave her all in sports but not in subjects like Maths and English. This surprised Taryn, who was reminded that academics should take priority and that continued underperformance might result in her being dropped from sports teams.
Next, Taryn's English teacher highlighted her intelligence but emphasized the need for attention to detail and pride in her work. He pointed out that minor, careless mistakes were holding her back from reaching the top ten percent despite her potential.
A Consistent Message
Every teacher echoed a consistent message: never settle for second best, always give one hundred percent, and prioritize reading and revising over screen time.
By the evening’s end, Taryn understood the changes she needed to make to continue thriving in both academics and sports.
Conclusion
I am impressed with the school’s proactive approach, which provided Taryn with crucial life coaching advice. Through this experience, she’s motivated to excel across all areas, understanding the value of effort and perseverance.
