He starts day dreaming and when told to concentrate and do his work he fumbles with his pencil and second guesses himself often. I feel like he is afraid to be wrong and gets nervous because of it. How can I help him relax and trust himself? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would communicate with the student about why he does these things and figure where to move on from there. Whether it is something they can progress in speaking between the two, or whether the student may need special education teaching. After the teacher has concluded, have a parent-teacher or parent-teacher-principal conference to discuss the situation.
