It is so nice to see school counseling through the lense of a different culture. Where I live, school counselors aren't on a "specialist" rotation where we have classes every week with the students. Rather, we schedule to go in the classrooms once or twice per month which gives us more time to run groups and deal with individual cases. But I totally agree with your pros and cons 😮‍💨😂

Thank you for sharing ❤️

This was such a helpful video. I’m an elementary school counselor going into my 1st year on the job this school year. You provided a well rounded perspective on things that I want to keep in mind as I enter into that school environment. I’m 30 going on 31, but I’ll gladly embrace the youthfulness that these kids will provide this school year😂

You are so welcome and thank you! Elementary is definiley a joy! I love it

My desire is to work in an elementary school setting after my graduation. This is helpful!

Great informative video! I’m an elementary school speech therapist whose office is right next door to our school counselor so I see how tough (and also rewarding) the job can be!

I graduate in December and have had a lot of exposure to the elementary level (worked at an elementary school for five years before starting my program). One of the things I love, as you mentioned, is dressing up and having more permission to be goofy and silly. I''m looking for a middle school placement for my last semester of internship because I personally think I'll vibe more at that level, but I do hope I'll still have some of that permission there, too.

Thank you for being real and open. I am a former teacher now pursuing my Masters Degree in School Counseling in order to be an Elementary School Counselor.

Did you quit teaching to become a school counselor to continue earning teacher salary?

I am a stay at home mom and I have four children in elementary school I would like to be a teacher or counselor or something that has to do with school and children. I know its not a lot of money,but I would love to be influence to help families and children thrive. I only have 1 semester in college as education and my personal experience as a mother, but I do know i need a lot of guidance and techniques to learn. I really enjoy having children around. :)

As a girl growing up, I always thought I wanted a girl and a boy as children. I wound up not having any children and it was not by choice. In dealing with elementary school children, did you have more trouble with boys as opposed to girls? For me, I was very obedient. My mother never had to come to school for anything dealing with disciplinary issues. I would think boys might be more a discipline problem.

That’s a good question and I never thought to track in a school year how many boys I had to work with vs. girls. However, Working in the elementary setting I have girls coming in and out of my office just as much as boys.
