School Talk: Let's Wrap it Up

Hi everyone! This is the last episode of the "School Talk" series. In this episode, I talk about the general ideas and takeaways I learned from making this series. Even though this was for my Grad/Capstone Project, I genuinely enjoyed seeing this side of my teachers and classmates. I hope you guys did too. Thanks for everything, Ara xx

Student Talk W/ Jergin Herboso

Have you ever been in an accelerated education program? Examples are IB, AP, AIG, and Early College. There are other examples out there, and we talk about our experiences. Because of this, we have both had high expectations for us, and it had impacted our character and mental health. We question if this type of education is worth the stress and hard work. Even if you are not in accelerated learning, there are some things we have in common. I hope you guys gain some insight about this topic. - Ara xx

Interview W/ my Principal and Counselor?? Ft. Ms. Hutchens and Mr. Kincaid

Hello everyone! As I am getting closer to graduation, I realize the value of my principal, Ms. Hutchens, and my guidance counselor, Mr. Kincaid. Students do not see them on a daily basis, like teachers, but they are still equally important. They also have a load of responsibilities and they are there to help you. This interview highlights those responsibilities and while it may not be the same for traditional schools, there should be some similarities. Enjoy! - Ara xx

Teacher Talk W/ Mrs. Williams, Mr. Womick, Mrs. Dearman, and Mr. Huffman

Hi everyone, here is another episode with some of my favorite teachers. This episode is more of an interview-type episode, but there is a large amount of insight about different perspectives, teaching responsibilities, and why teachers work the way that they do. Every student encounters a teacher, but do they actually know what they do on a day-to-day basis? This is what this episode is for. Hopefully this helps you students realize that your teachers are worth respecting, at least the good ones are :). Have a great week! - Ara xx

Student Talk: How students interact with each other

Hello everyone! Here is another episode related to my graduation project. As you can see in the title, we talk about how students interact, based on our own experiences. We talk about being bullied, character development, being a people pleaser, and so much more. I hope there is something that you can take away from this. Enjoy the episode! P.S. The audio is quite messy because we were passing around the only mic we had; I'm sorry for the inconvenience. :') - Ara xx
