Understanding and Patient

Financial Support

Recognize and Celebrate Progress Emotionally Supportive

Describe how each of the following might affect the learner’s motivation and achievement

Parent’s Involvement
This will help to monitor the student performance if the parent regularly monitors their child’s performance,
example of this is Parent Teacher Assembly or PTA, homeroom meeting and etc. these events or meetings will
help the parent to assess the performance of the student together with the teacher they can collaborate to help the
child improve its performance by the help of parent support, encouragement, and also provide healthy learning
environment.

Parent’s Culture
This is one of the major contributors when it comes to shaping learners’ behavior, for the reason of the family
itself who are teaching the values and how the learners portrait. Example of this if the parent is showing positive
parenting like providing guidance to their child, for sure the child will be adopted and will reflect to the behavior
of the child providing better performance in school because of the guidance of the student.

Parent’s Belief and Expectations

Same as the culture it will reflect and provide a major impact of the child growth and build its self-
perception, attitude when it comes to learning like eagerness to learn, and overall performance to
school.

Parent’s Income
This will provide positive reinforcement towards the student in the way of financial support if the
parent’s income can provide the financial needs of the student this will help them to improve their
performance.
 Parent’s Educational Achievement
This will inspire and encourage the child to finish their studies due to family members achievements.
This will help to boost their willingness to learn.
 Reflection #5

Parents influence children's motivation towards learning and their performance at

school. Involvement, beliefs, culture, and even socioeconomic status may affect a student's
academic performance and disposition toward going to school. Appreciation for family
support of schooling comes from knowing how these factors interact.

The involvement of parents, their culture, beliefs, income, and educational

background are significant motivators for students and really work wonders in boosting their
performance at school. That is because, through such activities as PTA or homeroom
meetings, parents get involved in the child's education, which means monitoring their
progress further with the help of a teacher who might identify problems that a parent can't.
The. The culture within the family also shapes a student's approach; whenever parents model
positive behavior and encourage curiosity, children tend to reflect those values in their very
own attitude toward school. The beliefs and expectations of parents add to a child's self-
confidence and disposition to learn; when parents set high but fair expectations and believe in
their children's abilities, students are most likely to develop strong motivation to achieve. In
the meantime, financial stability can ensure that a student experiences less stress since the
parents can provide educational resources and a conducive learning environment that helps
reduce his anxiety and improve his academic focus. In addition, their educational attainments
inspire the students to realize the importance of education and set similar achievements in
teaching. These two interlinked aspects mean that family support becomes increasingly
essential in stimulating motivation and enhancing educational outcomes for a child.

Overall, some fundamental dynamics determining a student's motivation and

performance at school include parents' involvement, culture, beliefs, income, and educational
background. When the parents are supportive and interested, expect much from the child, and
provide an environment conducive to learning, parents can do wonders to enhance the child's
desire to perform at school. Understanding all these factors makes one appreciate how
engagement by families contributes toward the child's educational path.
