Real conversations with your students.
"I'm dealing with the suicide of a family member- how do I cope?"
"The end of the quarter is kinda sucky rn"
"thank you, you too!!"
"I am very sad and don't feel like attending class."
"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?"
"Sometimes people don't tell me things because they don't want to hurt my feelings,but the fact they don't tell me hurts my feelings. What should I tell them?"
"Thanks for the wonderful advice"
"Idk, family life has gotten a little better for him, but his sisters make him feel worthless, and when his parents get after him, they yell at him so much, he feels like cutting. I always manage to make his feel better, but, I really just don't like his mom the most. She manipulates him to fo what she wants, and it just breaks him"
"I actually just got my grade up from a C to an A-"
"thanks, that's really nice to hear honestly. I hope you have a great day"
"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.”"
"I totally agree thanks!"
"How do you get rid of a sore throat?"
"Ya those are really awesome tips, thank u so much! Ima screenshot it so I don't forget - I appreciate your help, it's really nice to have someone to talk 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."
"thank you so much! i will reach out if i need to 🥰"
"I get bullied a lot"
"There's a lot on my to do list and I feel it piling up"
"You've been so helpful"
"What can I do to improve my mood?"
"I feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."
"im sad i aint at school i wanna kill my self"
"Guess what? I aced my test, 100/100!"
"How do you get your teachers to like you?"
"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"
"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"
"Okay, thank you🤎"
"Wowwww thats so cool!"
"You're welcome! 😉 But thanks to you too 😁"
"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"
