Real conversations with your students.
"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."
"I’m feeling nervous"
"How do you get rid of a sore throat?"
"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"
"Yes you too!! Thanks for helping me feel better"
"0 - I’m super sad. What do you do if nobody likes you?"
"I have a lot of family problems. My parents are getting a divorce."
"yeah he's this guy i met thru my friends family. & we almost dated but then he ghosted me & i think he's still on & off w his ex. he plays w my feelings bc i saw him yesterday for the first time in over a month & he acted like we were still talking & everything & it was weird. so i'm not sure if o should move on or keep hoping he'll choose me"
"There's a lot on my to do list and I feel it piling up"
"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?"
"Yea I'm so relieved now, thank you!"
"I have 3 F's and I'm super stressed because I'm normally a straight A student"
"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)"
"How do I increase self-confidence while performing or just stage fright in general?"
"I Don't know yesterday and today I just Felt sad when I woke up."
"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"
"That's a good idea thanks"
"Yeah, my aunt took a stroke, the doctors didn’t know why and it wasn’t looking very good. She had a severe brain bleed and their hope was that her brain would swell and stop the bleeding. But 12 hours later her brain was still bleeding. She had a 3% chance of pulling through but by 8 last night she was brain dead so they took her off life support and around 4 this morning she passed"
"How do you get your teachers to like you?"
"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?"
"you're so right !! i'm kind of doubting the relationship because it has a lot to do w/ me trusting him!"
"I feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."
"Okay sweet! there’s kind of a back story to it all to explain, as well as this being the first time I’ve gotten into this subject with anyone, so I’ll do that first if that's all good."
"Should I get help if I feel anxious most of the time?"
"How do I get rid of a friend that is mean and is taking all of my friends"
"I like that, I think that’s a good point, thank you for your input"
"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"
"I turned in the test today, wish me luck."
"this is actually helping me a lot😂 so thank you !"
"You've been so helpful"
