  Case: Study English 24/7
I have a new Korean student in my class. I speak a little Korean. He completes his work, including homework. The student appears tired most days and has fallen asleep in class several times. Over the period of a few days and with help from a Korean parent, I recently found out that from the time he gets home until about 10:00pm and again for two hours before school, he has to study English. How do I communicate his need for more rest with his parents without appearing to impose on their parenting and role in helping their son learn English? Further, how might I suggest some other strategies, such as allowing their son to interact with English speaking peers?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Getting the new student up and active in the classroom might be a great way to keep him involved. He needs to feel comfortable with his new peers and play is a big step in the Language Acquisition Process

Comments: I do not think that involving the student more will help if he does not have the energy because he did not get enough rest the night before.
