Hi Madam My daughter is in class IV in KV central school in Delhi. I wish to understand, if KV being bilingual in medium of instruction and when compared with other Pvt school passed out at time of school completion, is there likely hood of her being lagging behind in terms of personality and confidence in terms of language fluency and overall personality when compete for jobs in good corporates and for her overall career growth due to less exposure. Further, what more can I do for her confidence building now and in near future. Further, do you feel that school change or any other solution necessary for same. Pls help.

Ans: Hi!!

I feel that KVs have the best curriculum in terms of overall development of a child. But I really don't know how good this school is, you and your daughter are the best judge for this.
You can take a call whether to put her in a private school based on your goals in life and your budget.
Invest in a school which is invested in your child. School going kids will surely be influenced by the kind of environment they grow and the kind of company they keep. I believe that the confidence in young children comes from their parents.
You be confident about your decisions, she'll grow up being a confident girl. If you are under confident somewhere then see what you can do to raise your confidence, she'll learn to do it too.
You can get a coach to coach her on confidence building and grooming once she is a little older. For now be a confident parent and coach her, she is watching you. You feel you must change the school , then change it...make informed choices, and see how your daughter will bloom where ever she is!!
All the best...

My daughter is 13 years old. She is not serious about her studies , especially in Maths. I am worried about her future. Please write her career options, if she doesn't score good marks in 10th or 12th. She can speak english and is learning German in school.
Ans: Vikas Sir,

Generally speaking, most of the parents blame the children for their lack of interest in studies instead of thinking about why they are not sincere in their studies.

If a child is not serious about studies, generally following might be the possibilities/reasons:

1) Lack of communication / interaction/respect by parents with children.
2) (Unfavorable) Atmosphere at home (various reasons) & also at School.
3) Both parents are working and get less or no time to help or monitor children's studies.
4) Addiction to electronic gadgets.
5) Peer influence/peer pressure.
6) Lack of physical activities.

Vikas Sir, Please go through the above reasons (without bias) and find out solutions from now for the problems which are applicable to your daughter. Gradually she will definitely improve.

If possible, please arrange for a FEMALE home tutor for her Maths Subject for alternate days.

Coming to Career Options, as she is in 8th only, it is not possible now to provide her career options as her interest / academic performance will change by the time she reaches 10th standard.

Please have confidence over your daughter Sir. All the BEST for Your Daughter's Bright Future.
