External pressure

The adult students seem to have a lot of external pressure. In some cases they do a great job dealing with it. My hat is off to the students taking care of family,working and going to school. I think it is good to praise them for that.

I absolutely agree with recognizing students for their ability to succeed in so many areas at the same time. I think it is definitely a balancing act. When asking those successful students how they are accomplishing all of this, they usually describe great time management skills. They utilize tools such as planners and/or computerized calendars.
I use this knowledge to help those students that are not succeeding in these areas to develop these valuable skills.
