🚀 Skills to develop for greater success
However, when parents are asked to rank the following three categories in terms of priority: organization, motivation, knowledge, the majority of parents place knowledge in last place. Thus, being organized and motivated seem to be higher priorities for parents.
Soft skills: Academic progress is based on two foundations: the motivation (the energy required to work) and the transversal skills or soft skills (a set of abilities used by the student).
🎯 3 essential transversal skills
Having clear expression
Expression, whether written or oral, is the ability to give linguistic form to one's ideas with precision. The eloquence of speech is sometimes worth more than its content.
🗣️ Oral & WrittenBeing organized
Being organized can be learned. It is necessary to implement quick and easy actions and then long-lasting habits to develop sustainable reflexes.
📅 PlanningBeing focused
The concentration is essential for learning. The more a student develops their focus, the more they will be able to increase their efficiency and academic performance.
🎯 Focus💬 1. Having clear expression
Expression, whether written or oral, is a fundamental skill for education. Indeed, expression is a student's ability to give linguistic form to their ideas with great precision.
Oral expression, in particular, must not be neglected. It is increasingly valued within the national education system, as well as in professional life.
Victor Hugo said: "Form is substance risen to the surface."
Developing a student's expression will allow them to access more complex ideas and concepts.
🗂️ 2. Being organized
Being organized may be innate in some students. However, being organized can be learned. Students who are not naturally organized can therefore become so by showing method and patience.
Actions to implement:
- The weekend: Organizing the week's lessons and getting ahead on homework.
- General schedule: Organizing activities including extracurriculars (sports, music, social media).
- Increasing immediate actions: Gradually developing reflexes and focus.
🧘 3. Being focused
The concentration is an essential skill for learning. Memory works in several concentric circles: to learn, the brain first records the information perceived by our senses. This is known as evocation.
To develop concentration: Spark interest by learning a language, a musical instrument, or a sport. These methods help develop the student's ability to focus.
Warning: Digital tools can sometimes be obstacles to focus, increasingly reducing students' maximum concentration span. It is essential to use them in moderation.
