Is your teenager feeling the heat of exam season? Here's how to make it a little easier for everyone...
Parents know how intense it can get when our teens tackle the IB diploma, IGCSEs, or A levels. The pressure can feel like a pressure cooker at home!
So, what can you do? Start by getting a revision schedule in place. Make sure they have the exam dates front and centre, and help them plan their revision time effectively.
Don't forget to identify those clusters of exam days. If there are days with multiple exams, let them know they can take a breather on the lighter days. A little planning can make a huge difference!
And remember, remind them there’s a light at the end of the tunnel - maybe plan something special to celebrate their hard work once it’s all over!
Alex Marrable from TutorsPlus shares some top tips to get through exam season as well as ideas on when it's time to bring in a tutor.
