Choose the profession helps motivate studies; expert gives tips for getting

Why do teenagers like to study music listening and talking in class? Behaviors considered part of "rebellious" youth can be explained by biological changes that are ongoing at this stage of life. According to the psychologist and counselor Ivo Carraro, "at puberty, which occurs between 10 and 13 years, the body grows rapidly and come into play the hormones of puberty. To realize this, the brain becomes." The changes only end to 30 years.

These changes may make the student more than 13 years have difficulty retaining knowledge. "He acts on emotional impulses, does not measure the consequences of the acts, changes a lot of opinion and have difficulty putting yourself in other people [so talk more during class, for example]," he explains.

Another important difference in the brain is the decrease in the reward system. "At this stage, the student must have a much larger external stimulus to the sensation of pleasure, hence the pleasure in listening to loud music and ballads go," said Carraro.



The question remains: how to encourage young people to study this age? Encouraging the teenager will be natural when the studies are a source of pleasure. And this will occur, according to the professor, when the young know what career you want to follow in the future. "He has to know where this is going to have a life plan, because who has no destination ends up losing," he adds.
The teacher lists some tips for teens decide which profession to follow, check out:



• Knowledge: "The couple should seek information about the occupations and courses that interest you, talk with professionals, see if it will be pleasant for them and occupations, mainly to have self-knowledge [to define what they want]";


• Plan: Once you have chosen the profession, you need to check what is needed to enter college in which they want to study. "With that, he structures the brain to get what he wants," explains Professor


• Taste: the professor points out, however, do not just choose a career. "You have to enjoy walking the path. When people like what they do, automatically organizing the intellect, reason, and there is human growth," he says;


Carraro, who walks around a thousand students per year in Curitiba, says that it is possible to divide this quota into three types: There are those who already know what they want and have a question or another, those who have enough doubts, or even those that does not have a clue they intend to do in the future. According to the teaching, the difficulty in choosing from the fact that in the twentieth century, created many jobs. "The big challenge is to listen to people and make a decision on their own," he says.

And what to do when the couple has yet to enter the profession? According to the professor, the student can not lose focus and must understand the purpose of the school: "The student must have discipline and understand what the school has autonomy to build and he can make the decision of the profession," he explains. "He has to make sense of leaving home and go to their school," he adds.
