Questions for Teachers Frequently Asked by Parents


Mr. / Mrs. Teacher has experienced difficulties in communicating with parents of students? Yes, communication between teachers and parents needs to be well developed so that the development of student learning can be monitored more effectively. The teacher / teacher must give a strong impression on the parents so that they can be more comfortable and open to asking questions that they need to know. Sometimes, many teachers are confused and tend to be less communicative in answering parents' questions. To help you, let us know some questions for teachers who are often asked by the following parents.

1. Why do you give a lot / little homework?

Parents will have their own opinions about homework that their children must do every day. Stay open to all input given by parents, but remember that you are the teacher or parents of students in the school. In the end, how much homework is given is your policy to decide what is best for students.

If parents ask why you give so much homework, explain to them what their child is doing at school and why it is important for them to repeat the lesson at home by doing homework.

2. Does my child have friends?

School is not only about learning in class, but also about learning to socialize. Blending and getting to know new people is a valuable skill that must be developed in children. Every parent certainly wants to make sure their child can socialize well in school and not be ostracized.

Tell parents honestly based on the observations of Mr / Ms in class. The teacher / teacher can also ask for time to observe the child and will determine the right time to talk to the parents, if indeed their child has a problem. After that, you can talk with students and parents to find a solution.

3. Has my child ever made a problem at school?

If parents ask this question, you may assume that the child does have behavioral problems at home. Parents certainly want to know, whether their children's behavior at home will be the same as their behavior at school. It is possible for children to behave naughty at school, but behave both at home and vice versa.

Notify parents about what you see at school. If your child is making trouble at school, try to find out what is happening at home (divorce, family problems, sick families, etc.). If the child does not make a problem at school, convince parents and tell them that their child is a good student at school.

4. Our family will be on vacation, can I ask for all my child's homework for the next week?

Permission to take a vacation at school can make you difficult because students will spend a lot of time in class and lag behind other friends. This also means that you have to prepare a learning plan from afar so that parents can prepare whatever material the child must learn before re-entering after vacationing. Help parents as much as you can and tell them that children must catch up after they return.

5. What can I do so that my child can succeed in school?

Parents certainly want to play an active role in the child's learning process. Therefore, they need to know what they can do at home to help their children succeed in school. Parents can ask for details about how you can assess and what they can do to ensure their child gets perfect grades.

Mr / Ms can explain honestly about how you assess, and also tell your expectations for your students. Remind parents that this is not about value, but about the child's learning process.

6. Are there additional activities that my child can follow?

After parents ask about the child's development, of course parents will find out about what activities are provided by the school to support children's learning progress. Well, you can inform parents completely and clearly about what activities are provided by the school. Whether it's in the form of additional learning activities, English classes, or even activities to hone children's creativity. That way, parents can adjust the abilities and preferences of children with additional activities at school.

7. What should be improved in the next semester?

After all the questions have been submitted, usually the parents will ask the last question, what action should be taken in the next semester so that children's achievements can be even better. Mr. / Mrs. TeacherYou can tell the learning plan for the next semester and what are the expectations of you to the students. Tell what obstacles are usually experienced by students in learning and give input on what solutions can be done. Also tell what things you have considered good and must be maintained by students.

Good communication between teachers and parents is very important to support the child's education process.
