You need to fully understand your child's learning situation, such as their ability in each subject, whether they prefer to study alone or with friends, whether they are diligent in completing assigned homework, and whether they have good concentration, before deciding on a future study direction.
Only then can we explore various options for future study and clearly choose the path that is right for our children.

There are many options for studying, including academies, private tutoring, online lectures, and self-study.
The process of deciding for yourself which of these you should choose to improve your skills is truly self-directed learning.
Decide on a method that suits you, such as, "It's hard to study math alone, so I'll go to an academy," "I have to study English through online lectures," or "For Korean, I can attend classes at school and solve workbooks on my own."

The safest and most reliable way to diagnose a child is for parents to become study experts.
It's not easy to find someone who cares as much about your child as a parent, devotes as much time to them, and can provide a comprehensive diagnosis and treatment.
Professional learning consultants can fill some of that role, but they can only assess a child based on limited information in a short period of time.
It is dangerous to rely entirely on them.
It is advisable to use the opinions and judgments of professional consultants only for reference.

If you're stuck on a problem, encourage yourself to ask yourself questions like, "Why can't I solve this? What do I need to do to solve this?"
Let's develop the habit of studying actively through questions.
Children who have this habit from a young age will naturally think about "why" while studying, and will be able to develop the ability to solve problems on their own.

When I talk to my brothers and other Seoul National University classmates, it's extremely rare to find someone who had a grand goal from a young age and studied hard to achieve it, or who studied with a sense of value in their lives.
Most people who worked hard and got good grades got a great sense of accomplishment, so they continued to work hard to feel that sense of accomplishment.
Then, if a dream arises in the middle, you will study hard to achieve that dream.
The reason I started studying hard for the first time was mainly because of a sense of accomplishment.

There is something my respected math teacher told me in high school.
The process of becoming good at math is similar to becoming good at baseball.
Let's say you like baseball and watch a lot of baseball games.
If you watch a lot of baseball games, you will learn a lot about baseball.
But just because you know it well doesn't mean you'll do it well.
If you want to be good at baseball, you have to play a lot of baseball.
The same goes for math.

Many people make plans, but few people are good at making plans that are purposeful.
We'll share with you our first-class planning method, developed through our own experience, mentoring countless students, and countless trials, errors, and improvements.
It's structured in steps, and each step isn't difficult at all, so anyone can create a first-class plan by simply following them one by one in order.

Many students say, “Teacher, I try hard, but it doesn’t work out.”
Of course, you are working hard and you feel that way too, so it will be even more frustrating.
However, objectively speaking, the efforts these students are putting in are very likely not enough to achieve the results they desire.
Some people study for 3 hours a day and think they've worked hard, while others study for 10 hours and think, "I didn't get much done today."

My mother called it 'pottery making'.
It is far more important to build this study vessel than to do good deeds and make progress quickly.
It takes effort and patience on the part of parents to develop these qualities and habits.
It also takes a long time.
However, if you create a study vessel this large and strong, it will have the stamina to hold a lot of knowledge for a long period of study, and it will not break easily.

As students grow and change psychologically and environmentally, the role of parents must also change.
A true mother's approach to studying is to wisely provide support whenever needed, appropriate for the child's age, and to provide support to help them endure the long and arduous journey of studying.
