How can I be a resource for my student?

Help your student help themselves by not rushing in to help: pause before responding to that text!

Support them in making decisions: “what do you think you should do?”

Foster a sense of agency: reinforce their taking action

Plan B, Plan C, Plan D:they will learn from their mistakes/what does not work as well as their successes
