Hello, I am a 14 years old student from Denmark, and I worry about my fellow classmates’ school- and homework habits. I often feel really bad when only a few have done their homework, and it annoys me when they consider it an achievement to have done it. They also have a tendency to come late and they can’t focus for more than 20 minutes at once. Do you think there is anything I can do to help them see homework as an opportunity to learn on ow premises instead of a chore?

Teaching in Real Life

Ummm, I think you are the best student ever!

Everything you have described sounds like many of my students here in Canada.

I’m not sure if there is anything you can do, as a peer, other than set an example and try to talk to your friends about it.  If you continue what you’re doing, it might change a few because they will notice the ones who are paying attention.

Please let me know if anything you try works!
