Real conversations with your students.
"The end of the quarter is kinda sucky rn"
"0 - I’m super sad. What do you do if nobody likes you?"
"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???"
"you're so right !! i'm kind of doubting the relationship because it has a lot to do w/ me trusting him!"
"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"
"I’ll give that a try, I appreciate the words of advice, they’re quite comforting."
"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!"
"All my friends watch tiktoks instead of doing hw and brag about it, it's like, high school culture to just procrastinate and brag about having bad grades and no sleep and everything and it doesn't click to me. But yeah I love my friends but I wish I could meet some that are more like me."
"How do I get rid of a friend that is mean and is taking all of my friends"
"Why do I feel the need to hide who I really am from my friends? I end up resenting them because they're talking to the person I pretend to be, and it feels fake because I'm fake around them"
"I can't help in my classroom, we are online"
"thanks, that's really nice to hear honestly. I hope you have a great day"
"Most definitely, I'm happy to hear whatever you've got to say"
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
"Yea I'm so relieved now, thank you!"
"i have another question. how do you feel good about yourself and things you are good at without seeming self centered?"
"How do you get rid of a sore throat?"
"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 deal with friends that keep fighting and get me in the middle of their drama?"
"I enjoy all of this information"
"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."
"You too, have a great rest of the day😁"
"There's a lot on my to do list and I feel it piling up"
"idk. i just get sad randomly sometimes like my depression will just come and hit me out of nowhere when i'm feeling fine. and my doctor thought i might be bipolar but the psychologist said i wasn't so yeh. idk i'm just kinda weird lol"
"I turned in the test today, wish me luck."
"That's a good idea thanks"
"well, the overbearing feeling that everyone around is making you feel like you aren't good enough, like you're not deserving of the same kind of love if you're different"
"I actually just got my grade up from a C to an A-"
"I feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."
"How do you get your teachers to like you?"
