[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a poor immigrant parent but not Latina. I am trying to read up as much as I can on college etc However my child doesn’t seem too motivated I try to tell him that as long as he doesn’t outright hate coding he should pursue it as his career He doesn’t seem to be passionate about anything but I hope he has time to grow and change [/quote] It has to start with motivation of child. If child is not a good student, it is game over before it even begins.[/quote] Good student has a lot to do with the parent though. Parent has to be involved in their schooling but a poor immigrant parent who works long hours and doesn't understand what the kid is being taught can't really help. I know because I asked parents for math help and they didn't know anything.i don't believe one graduated high school like he said he did and my mom didn't even finish middle school. She stopped out because she was pregnant. [/quote]
