Many students are struggling academically. First, normalize this and accept the child as he/she is. We must build a supportive community and understand that all children are different. Some students might need more innovative strategies, while others might grasp things quickly and learn typically.

Here are some strategies to develop the interest of students who are not interested in academics:

• Devising new and innovative methods

Some students require new and unique strategies to learn. They have a small attention span and deviate easily. Some unique and colorful caricatures can be used to teach them, and videos to make them learn in a fun way.

• Uplifting students and lending them an ear

Get to know such students. Talk to them and understand the cause of the problem. It might be that the student is facing some health issue or requires some lifestyle change. Understanding the root cause of why the child isn’t interested in learning or studying is vital to correcting this issue.

• Making small groups of similar students 

Teachers and educators can divide the students into small groups, as this facilitates focusing on each student. By doing so, teachers will be able to teach better and analyze the students better. The students who are struggling will automatically level up their efforts.
