Underachieving students often fail to turn in assignments. They fail to attend class regularly, fail to build positive relationships, and fail to steer clear of self-defeating behaviors. Underachievers fail to find meaning in school work, fail to ask for help, and fail to see the connection between effort, success, and failure.

Failure hurts. Failure encourages impulses to escape, attack, cheat, withdraw, distract, and give up.

  • Learn to break the cycle of failure in you underachieving students…so they can improve their performance and maximize their potential.
  • Learn to put attribute theory into practice in your classroom…so that underachievers understand the relationship between their behavior and their performance.
  • Help underachievers give up the victim stance and assume more responsibility over their school lives…so you can spend less time motivating and more time teaching.
  • Help underachievers develop an “I can” stance towards life so that can think, act, and be more successful.
  • Dramatically decrease the number of students who choose to underachieve by learning how to manage your classroom and your own mind to positively impact your “at risk” students.
