Real conversations with your students.
"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"
"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
"These tips will probably help a lot for now - I'd love to stay in touch, and I'll reach out if I'm struggling again (probably sooner rather than later 😅) thank you so so much"
"yes i really think being friends with her will be the best option. and thank you very much! Thank you for helping me think of new things to do to help myself!"
"I turned in the test today, wish me luck."
"I’ll give that a try, I appreciate the words of advice, they’re quite comforting."
"Lately I've started liking this guy in my friend group and he's really nice and everyone I know loves him but my best friend and it's been making me feel super guilty because she doesn't like being around him. I'm not really sure what to do about it though because I'm trying really hard to not pressure her and talk about him around her but I still feel like its causing a strain in our friendship"
"What do you do if nobody likes you"
"Guess what? I aced my test, 100/100!"
"I’m stressed, I’m taking the ACT in 6 days"
"How do you get rid of a sore throat?"
"How do I make a paper airplane?"
"How do I deal with friends that keep fighting and get me in the middle of their drama?"
"Most definitely, I'm happy to hear whatever you've got to say"
"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 😅"
"“Thats a good idea! Ive never tried that. Usually each day I just get a 1-2 hour nap...Alright i will definitely have to! Thank you so much”"
"Yes you too!! Thanks for helping me feel better"
"That is true. I'm just happy that I'm able to help him"
"I can't help in my classroom, we are online"
"Thank you so much for listening. Glad I could make your day. I dont feel comfortable talking about this with people. I am just more private of a person I suppose."
"How do I make and keep friends?"
"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 have tried to talk a little bit to my parents but I didnt like seeing them upset, plus they are already worried about me to much as it is, I dont want to add more weight on them anymore. And I dont trust the counselors anymore”"
"Thank you for being here for the students, it's great to have a person to talk to. Here's a little expression of my gratitude in video form (the audio is a little quiet so turn up the volume a little)"
"“Thank you so much for your support!”"
"I like that, I think that’s a good point, thank you for your input"
"Well for one I'm just sad a lot of the time, I guess we could call that depression at this point, and I often act happy and good natured, and I'm trying to transition away from the religion of the masses here in St George, but I don't expect any of them to be able to understand, so I keep it to myself. Whenever I talk to them I feel like I'm constantly filtering what I really want to say because they wouldn't be ok with it"
"Kind of because I don't know where J belong"
"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"
