and teachers will do their part to increase the
children's motivation as needed. However, parents
also have a more important role in this respect.
Considering the fact that their children will build a
skill they will use throughout their academic and
professional lives, Parents' cooperation with Menar
and their support in motivating their children at
times when they show signs of tiredness of daily
work or reluctance in regular practice , will help
their children perceive Menar training not like any
ordinary extracurricular activity that they can give
up any time they wish but rather like a life style or
school with no choice of giving up.
Parents are strongly recommended to inform the
teacher when their child will miss classes for
health or other important reasons and check if it is
possible to arrange a make-up session.
Even if children don 't miss any classes ,
parents might find out that their child is having
difficulty in a certain area. In such cases, parents
are recommended to inform the teacher about this
issue and ask for the teacher 's advice in solving
this particular problem.
If the teacher wants to arrange
an extra study session with the
child, parents are encouraged to
cooperate with the teacher and
bring their child to Menar for the
extra session at the time as
specified by the teacher.
