Real conversations with your students.
"I like that, I think that’s a good point, thank you for your input"
"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."
"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."
"I’m doing better now, thank you!"
"I just got rejected by a girl 😂"
"How do I deal with friends that keep fighting and get me in the middle of their drama?"
"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"
"I actually just got my grade up from a C to an A-"
"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)"
"Do you think I have depression?"
"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."
"Will do😀👍"
"I’ll give that a try, I appreciate the words of advice, they’re quite comforting."
"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"
"Why are boys so mean 😭😭Are all boys mean 😢"
"How do I make a paper airplane?"
"I’m feeling nervous"
"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"
"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 am very sad and don't feel like attending class."
"i want to stay friends with the girl i just talked to. we work at the same place and she's the only one who's ever been very kind to me. i just feel like my friends are very manipulative of me so i feel like i should just tell them that i'm wanting to take a break and focus on my mental health and happiness"
"im sad i aint at school i wanna kill my self"
"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"
"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"
"thank you, you too!!"
"I can't help in my classroom, we are online"
"Well thank you amazing human too! It's so awesome that you take time to talk to strangers and brighten their day through this program. Keep it up! Have a great day"
"My friends say I talk too much, any tips on how to talk less?"
"You're welcome! 😉 But thanks to you too 😁"
