It is essential to help children to form a focused habit while studying. Because in all activities, children always need to focus in a certain period of time in order to be effective. If they are not trained to focus during their childhood, they will find it difficult to complete the task and it is difficult to avoid stressful pressures when having difficult problems that need more time to solve, etc. In the long term, poor concentration can take away your child's chances of success.

Make small periods of brain-focused learning periods like learning 45 minutes of rest for 5 minutes or studying 90 minutes - 25 minutes off.
