Real conversations with your students.
"i don't know i just missed two weeks of school due to COVID and my grades are suffering and i can't find the motivation to work. I lose my 4.0 this year already to one A- and now i kinda feel like a failure"
"Yea I'm so relieved now, thank you!"
"I've been feeling a bit stressed, I work full time. And also have been struggling to take out a motor I've bought from the junk yard."
"Should I get help if I feel anxious most of the time?"
"I have funeral I'm going to, ACT stuff is being shoved in my head, I have 4 college classes to keep up on, skills USA is coming up and I've been nominated to participate, and I have two jobs"
"How do I feel better"
"That’s good, I’ll try to do that today with my friends."
"0 - I’m super sad. What do you do if nobody likes you?"
"There's a lot on my to do list and I feel it piling up"
"How do I get rid of a friend that is mean and is taking all of my friends"
"I turned in the test today, wish me luck."
"I have a question, I have a friend who hasn't been making the best choices and so I've been trying to stop being friends with her how do I do that without hurting her feelings?"
"I have a math test tomorrow and that's the only class holding me back from my 4.0 and if I don't do good I'll lose it"
"My best friend texted me saying she is fed up with me hurting her feelings and being mean, I don't know what I've done and apologized if I've ever done anything not on purpose. She said apparently I did something on purpose and I should know what it is. Now she won't talk to me and I'm still confused. Any advice???"
"Ok I'm scared for my speech in leadership"
"thank you so much! i will reach out if i need to 🥰"
"I don't feel an intimate connection to anyone in my life and being in the general vicinity of people gives me extreme anxiety."
"i'm failing all my classes"
"I'm stressed with my grades still. Normally I have all A's but I have a C in math that I've been trying to get up but I don't get the unit I missed"
"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"
"I’m stressed, I’m taking the ACT in 6 days"
"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."
"Guess what? I aced my test, 100/100!"
"Man are u a real person? Also I am burnt out. But answer both questions plez"
"I'm dealing with the suicide of a family member- how do I cope?"
"this kid said he loves me and i don't know how i feel!!! like he's so sweet but i just can't say it. it's hurting my brain"
"I can't help in my classroom, we are online"
"How do I increase self-confidence while performing or just stage fright in general?"
"That's a good thought, everyone has something to contribute, sometimes it's just hard to see my part when others seem to have so much more to contribute than I do, I appreciate your help, this program is a really great idea"
"I feel bad talking to my parents, because I know they will still love me if I let my grades drop and they'll always support me, but it does feel like to much pressure sometimes, especially since my older brother was so good when it came to grades and academic performance. And I'm not close enough with any of my teachers to share this kind of stuff with them...that's a good way to look at it, thank you.”"
