You can do whatever you can to help them, you could make sure they're getting all their homework done and help them with things they're struggling with, you could even consider getting a tutor. Or just make sure everything in their life is ok because if they are suffering from things such as depression or anxiety that may effect their grades

As much as we earn worldly credentials in schools, we all have a Genie inside us and and have one or more gifts within. Please find what your child's interests are and encourage and help to do more of it so he/she feels more worthy and and will have more self confidence in identifying himself as a winner. Please let me know if you would like to read inspiring stories of historical people who were not great academics.

Talk to your child's teacher/s. Parent-Teacher communication is key in developing a plan to support your child in their learning. Your child's teacher/s should be able to tell you what you can do to support your child's learning at home and they may be able to provide some insight as to why your child is struggling. Be a strong advocate for your child. Insist that your child's learning needs are catered for within the classroom if possible. Your child's teacher/s should be able to explain how they are differentiating the class programme to meet your child's needs. If they are unable to provide this information, you should share your concerns with the principal (or whoever it's appropriate to contact at your school). Encourage your child to have a growth mindset: Brains and talent matter, but hard work and dedication matter more. Give lots of praise for their perseverance and do your best to promote the positives in their learning.

You need to talk to them for sure. Although don't make them feel uncomfortable, you should be more like a trusted friend than a parent at that time. Ask why they're having trouble with. Ask if they'll consider a tutor, too.

Well, search for help. It's not good to put too much pressure on your child. Take it easy but help him or her.

Talk to him about it. Talk about the classes or subjects he is struggling with. Then after that, maybe you can set up a time to help him with the struggles he is having at school or maybe get him a tutor. Many schools offer help to students after school if they are struggling with something. With a little help, he will improve. If the problem is that he can't keep concentrated in school maybe your child has difficult paying attention so you can reach out to a doctor. The important thing is to identify what is causing the problem so you can guys can then concentrate on improving at school.
