Helpful Resources for Students to Navigate Challenges
As a trusted source of support for your student, they may turn to you when they face obstacles —whether it’s a disappointing grade, a roommate conflict, or a difficult class. While it’s natural to want to fix the problem, it’s essential to empower your student to advocate for their own needs and develop critical thinking skills. If your student shares a concern, your role is to listen, guide them toward potential solutions, and support their decision—even if it’s not the choice you would make.
