Proven strategies to motivate your child

Parents can build intrinsic motivation in their children by ensuring three psychological needs are met – competence, autonomy and relatedness, says Prof Wang.

Competence: Being competent will help the child build confidence in the subject. One way is to get him or her help if he or she is struggling in the subject, and let the child experience success by setting small milestones.

Autonomy: A child needs to have ownership of his or her learning by having a choice of what and when to study, rather than being forced to do so by the parent.

Relatedness: This refers to the relationship between parent and child, and how it should never be used as a threat to get the child to study.

Hi fellow parents and guardians of 2023 PSLE cohort, I'm mummy coach here - literally a mummy of a 2011 kid + a certified coach. I'm a solution focused certified coach working with peers and parents to achieve what they want, by when and how much they want for themselves or their kids. It's a long journey and sometimes, only when being asked the right questions, then you can be clear and sure of what you really really really want or don't want AND why.


Coaching is not mentoring or training. Do ping me for a free 20min professional coaching session. Get the benefits of coaching now! :salute:

Thanks @Zeal mummy! We've just submitted our application to SOTA for visual arts and still deciding on a suitable visual arts DSA secondary school that does not mandate students to take HCL eg. Not Nan chiau.. she really has no interest even if they have Mondays 3-6pm arts and taking arts for upper sec EAP n O levels. The HCL is a deterrent.

So to speak, I coach:
1) parents/guardians on their relationships with their children, how can they help their children to be better in school or be better versions of themselves for their children (mainly parents as we are all on kiasu parents PSLE 2023 now as we speak) :xedfingers:
2) financial mgmt - can be on $, property, insurance, etc (no selling here)
3) parents as adults navigating through career, life, relationships, further studies, better health, at a crossroad or simply wanting to build confidence and good habits (have several clients in this area)

Coachees can be first timers and willing to approach the discussion with an open mind to see the benefits. Basically it is using a scientific solution focused model to use what you inherently know (Search: Solution Focused academy and ICF ACC/PCC accreditations)

Can message me at kiasuparents inbox or email to [email protected] - thanks a lot! 🥰

Dear Parents,


Can other parents recommend some tuitions/holiday programs to prepare for PSLE - Science and Maths mainly (that does not burn a huge hole in the pocket)
Kid is good with basic concepts and scores around 80% and above for all subjects with no tution at the moment.
But I think a few months or refresher will do some good.

Look forward to some suggestions. Thanks and good luck to all of us

@springles1 : can try 2 subjects under the learning lab crash course to rehash knowledge. We went for 3 subjects in March before, kid likes the science n English though find maths a bit tough. Can wait for promo for an outlet near you we went to tampines century sq n can reward kid with a toy outside the centre after all lessons lol :rahrah:
