Real conversations with your students.

"it's all good!! just been thinking ab school & life in general. it's all stressful"
"I enjoy all of this information"
"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."
"I'll try to gain the courage to talk to someone irl, if not I'll come back to talk to you- it's easy to release over text honestly 😅"
"I miss my dad, he seems to be the only one who calm me down lately. And i'm stuck in my room breaking down while trying finishing assignments before the quarter ends so i don't have a bad grade, and i just need him to be here."
"Will do😀👍"
"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"
"Idk 😂 I am the oldest in my family and I am struggling with the idea of leaving for college. I kinda just try to not think about it but then I end up not doing the things that I need to do like apply for scholarships. When I do think about it I cry though😅 I love my family and I don't want to loose what we have but I also want to continue to grow and got to college ya know?"
"I was home from school for two weeks because I was depressed because my parents divorced this summer and I moved and haven't been feeling belonged at school"
"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"
"That’s a great idea thank you, honestly, I really appreciate it.”"
"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"
"Thank you, I love getting messages that make me stop what I'm doing and think about things that leave me in a more positive attitude than before!"
"How do I deal with friends that keep fighting and get me in the middle of their drama?"
"How do you get rid of a sore throat?"
"I feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."
"That's a good idea thanks"
"Quite a bit, a lot has changed for my recently, I told my parents about wanting to disassociate myself from their religion, and that's been just difficult because I'm trying to figure out what to believe, I recently gave up pornography as well, and it's been such a struggle without it, I've had an addiction to it for a few years now, so everyday life just seems much harder than usual, and as the end of the quarter nears my schoolwork is just ridiculous, so it's been quite hard to feel happy these past couple weeks"
"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"
"Most definitely, I'm happy to hear whatever you've got to say"
"hey thanks im sorry im just being bullied at school and i told the counselor and he's been helping me but it's only getting worse"
"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"
"I can't help in my classroom, we are online"
"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"
"I appreciate it 😊most definitely👍"
"I totally agree thanks!"
"“I'm grateful for you, and my family. Thanks for being here for me!! You're awesome ”"
"“Thank you so much for your support!”"
"My friends mom passed away and I don't really know what to say to him. I don't want to sound insensitive but I don't what to sound pitiful, so any advice?"
