Work beside your child while he or she is doing the homework.

Not every kid does their homework in the same exact way. While others successfully finish their homework alone, others thrive with the help of others. Hence, whether you're checking emails or reading, do it beside your student who is doing the homework. So, you can observe that best suits his or her learning style. More so, according to Parenting, this is a great opportunity to model good behavior: parents should always be available for kids, especially if they have any questions that need appropriate answers.
