Think about it...
Have you ever felt like your friend was jealous of you for excelling in academics, sports, or something else?
Student Advice:
Teacher:
- Offer to tutor your friend if they're struggling in a class you're doing well in.
- Tell your friend that you'll teach them how to do what it is that you're good at. Help them practice!
Teacher:
- Try pointing out some of the things that your friend is good at. Let them know that even though you may be awesome in one area, they may be stronger in another.
- Know that it is perfectly okay to be proud of your own accomplishments! Let your friend know that you're proud of yourself, and that they should be proud of you too! Part of being a good friend is being proud when your friend succeeds, even if on the inside you feel jealous.
