Matric finals are a tough time for young people who are facing the stress of producing their best performance at the final exams.
A South African educator, Navine Christian, has produced a course that helps high school learners - and their parents - in their struggle to achieve the best possible results.
The course equips parents with the skills they need to coach their high school students. It does this by developing skills, techniques, and self-awareness that improve academic performance and exam readiness. Drawing on 30 years of teaching experience, it condenses essential habits students need to approach learning and assessments with confidence.
Just as a sports coach enhances a player’s performance, parents are guided to support their teens through explanatory videos and tailored tools. The content is designed for students who wish to understand their learning styles and adjust study methods accordingly.
Parents and students should commit to:
- A few hours of video-based learning
- Completing downloadable psychometric and study assessments
- Ongoing practical application
- Building a personal library of exam resources
- Using techniques for at least two months before joining the online mentoring session
Parents are expected to:
- Watch the videos and learn the coaching techniques
- Monitor and discuss their child’s progress
- Offer empathetic yet firm guidance
- Encourage consistent habit formation
Early starters benefit most, but even last-minute learners can improve outcomes.. Digital tools are encouraged, but pencil and paper remain essential for comprehension, manual dexterity, and effective knowledge reproduction. The course culminates in a group mentoring session where students share progress and build peer networks to sustain productive habits.
