Real conversations with your students.
"I enjoy all of this information"
"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!"
"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)"
"The end of the quarter is kinda sucky rn"
"I’m feeling nervous"
"I turned in the test today, wish me luck."
"How do I get rid of a friend that is mean and is taking all of my friends"
"im sad i aint at school i wanna kill my self"
"That is true. I'm just happy that I'm able to help him"
"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"
"I have 3 F's and I'm super stressed because I'm normally a straight A student"
"thank you so much! i will reach out if i need to 🥰"
"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"
"Soo, the other day I got into a really heated argument with my best friend's mom, because they kinda make my friend feel down. I went to confront her, but it turned into an argument. I said some things I'm not too proud of, and wrote her an apology note, but um. I still feel sick from what I said."
"I am very sad and don't feel like attending class."
"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"
"No worries, monster texts are usually the best 😊 That is really helpful actually- I'm a visual learner, and that is a good image. Do you have any suggestions on how to get back to the inner circle? I get so caught up in the dregs I forget how to get out"
"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!"
"Why are boys so mean 😭😭Are all boys mean 😢"
"That's really comforting, thank you!"
"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."
"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"
"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 get bullied a lot"
"You're welcome! 😉 But thanks to you too 😁"
"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"
"Wowwww thats so cool!"
"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"
"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."
"There's a lot on my to do list and I feel it piling up"
