7th & 8th Graders? They're Just Like Us (Mostly)

Select your role to begin.

Your role will shape the practice scenarios you encounter throughout this training.

Student Support Specialist

Student Advisor

Teacher

Academic Counselor

Here's what you're about to do.

You'll meet three students — Camille, Billie, and Clark — each in a different situation. You'll choose two to work with, with the option to do all three. For each one, you'll:

1. Read a short brief on what's going on with the student.

2. Listen to a short audio clip.

3. Respond in a live conversation with the student, powered by AI. We recommend using the mic instead of typing!

You'll have about fifteen minutes with each student — including reading and listening. When time is up, the conversation will close automatically and you'll receive feedback.

Feedback is based on

Relational Principles

Curiosity
Flexibility
Empathy

Core Values

Start with Students
Total Ownership
Excellence Always
Constant Growth
Be Good Humans

This is not graded. It's practice.

Choose your first student.

Camille

"I've never gotten a bad grade before."

Billie

"Um. What?"

Clark

"I've got it under control."

First, Context.
