The involvement of parents in overcoming student learning difficulties is to be able to establish communication with class teachers to find out their children's learning development, provide free time with children to discuss lessons that have been given at school, provide learning facilities, understand children's learning difficulties and provide guidance, and provide motivation in learning
Learning difficulties is a condition experienced by students in conducting learning activities improperly due to threats, obstacles or disturbances related to internal and external factors that cause brain difficulties in following the normal learning process in terms of receiving, processing, and analyzing information obtained during learning [21], [22], [9], [23], [17]
Summary
Elementary school (SD) as one of the basic educational institutions, has an important role in realizing the optimal growth and development of student potential. The Ministry of Education and Culture [1] explains that optimal development is not limited to achievement by following intellectual capacity, interests, and talents, but as a condition of development that allows students to be able to show healthy and responsible behavior and have good adaptation and socialization skills. The success or failure of achieving educational goals depends a lot on how the learning process experienced by students as students [4]. Because the long elementary school age range allows for various problems related to growth and development, individual differences in aspects of intelligence, personality, talents, interests, physical condition, family background, neighborhood, religion, tradition, customs, and culture. That is because the learning process experienced by students is not aligned with the expected development so that for some students may experience learning difficulties
