Want to motivate your child to learn at home? Here are a few simple but effective tips to make learning a positive and successful experience for your child!
- Create an inviting, cosy and quiet learning space together with your child. A clearly demarcated area that is free from distractions will help your child to concentrate better. Decorate the space with a few inspiring elements, such as plants, posters or personal photos. This will make your child feel comfortable and motivated to study there.
- Work with your child to divide large tasks into smaller, manageable steps. Reward them after each completed step, for example with stickers or small prizes. This will give your child a sense of achievement and success, which will spur them on to keep going. Encourage them to set their own learning goals and check together whether they have achieved them. This way, your child takes more responsibility for their learning.
- Try to make learning as playful and creative as possible. Educational games, puzzles or independent projects can turn learning into an exciting adventure. Allow your child to use their imagination and creativity. Perhaps they would even like to design their own learning poster or learning game?

- Praise and recognise your child’s progress – even the small ones! Your positive feedback shows them that you value their efforts and support them in making progress. Give reasons for your praise so that your child understands what they have done particularly well. This will encourage them and give them the confidence to take on challenges in the future.
- Create a regular learning rhythm by establishing fixed learning times. You may even want to give your child their own learning diary or a weekly plan in which they can track their progress independently. A structured approach will give your child security and guidance.
You will see how, step by step, learning becomes a shared adventure that you both enjoy!
