I also share actionable tips such as setting long-term goals, fostering curiosity, encouraging a growth mindset and the importance of self-reflection and feedback.By understanding the principles of Self-Determination Theory and offering support during academic struggles, parents can guide their children toward success in a way that builds their internal drive for learning.
