How to over come ?

Praise & reward :

Motivation works wonders for slow learners. To help them continue learning, it is important to acknowledge even the smallest victory and offer rewards for each milestone.

Set realistic expectations & smaller targets :

As a parent and an educator, it is essential to understand what is achievable for the child and set targets accordingly.

Be supportive :

Slow learners should be taught to learn from their failures. They should be encouraged to explore and learn at their own pace until they succeed.

Parents and educators should be vocally supportive and teach them via oral assignments that are in tune with their competency.

Encourage peer tutoring :

This is one of the most effective strategies for slow learners. Parents and teachers should encourage slow learners to study in groups. The more a child interacts with others of his/her age, the more confident he/she will feel.

Encourage multiple intelligence :

If the child shows interest in any co-curricular activity, it is essential to support them. This boosts their confidence and they start feeling socially accepted.

.Encourage interaction and oral communication

Slow learners should be encouraged to voice their thoughts. Parents should ask their children about their day at school, have discussions on TV shows, sports and music.
