Dear Master Peter
My son is 16 years old this year and will be sitting for his GCE "O" Levels
examination in about Oct/Nov 2009. The problem with him is that he lack
the motivation/discipline to study or revise for the upcoming exams and has done
badly for his mid-year exam. From the general feedback I gotten from his
teachers and through my years of observation, he is not someone who cannot excel
in his studies but is rather someone who is not motivated. At times when
he is in the "mood" to prepare for a certain test/exam, he didi pretty
well test/paper.
Through some advice which I have gotten, I have put a 9 tier crystal pagoda
and a flying horse on his study desk in this bedroom which is on the
second level of our house. However, these don't seem to help much as he
does not always study at his study desk. Sometimes, he will study at the
dinning table on the first level or sometimes at the empty space near
the staircase at the first level.
Would appreciate if you could provide me with some guidance as I am
worried.
Thank you.
