This is my major. I’m in community college. It’s so hard but I want to make a difference in the mental health community and stop stigma so I’m excited!
social work is such a great way to make a difference :) thanks for watching!! I love hearing from others who love social work, too !!
I am also in community college transferring to State University in the Fall to get my BA in Psychology. I am really interested in being a school social worker for K-5. I love working with kids
how much debt ti you plan on being in?
How's it like to be a social worker with bsw and MSW degree. Is that worth it . Will you get good money. How's the job
My field placement next semester is at an elementary school and this video just increased my excitement!
That makes me so happy to hear!! I learned so much during my months there :))
You inspired me to become a school social worker after seeing this video. I now work for an elementary school as a SSW and love it! 😊
That is so crazy but incredible to hear!! So glad you're in a job you love :) (and that I was lucky enough to play a small role in your journey) 💗💗
Omg I actually loved this video 💜💜💜 your done !!!! Yayyy
I was a Social Work major but recently switched to Journalism. I love social work and want to help people but I’ve also had a passion of reporting the news and might even think about having a career in both Social Work particularly helping with case management as well as news reporting
that sounds like a great path for you! social work can def pair up with different career fields really well :)
You do not know how glad I am to find your channel!! I’m currently looking to enroll in the program for the summer at Alabama.
I'm so glad you found it, too!! Best of luck!!
I’m so glad I found your channel🥺 I’m going to UAB to get my BSW,thanks for posting 💓💓
awh I’m so glad you found it, too!! getting my BSW has been one of the best decisions I’ve made :) good luck at UAB! thanks for subscribing, Nae!
When you can’t do an in person termination session you can send a card with supportive comments letting them know what your work with them meant to you. I would also remind them of resources they can turn to if they need more help. Im sure your hard work and the care you shared with your students will have a positive impact. 😀
had I known they wouldn't be there, I think I should've done just that. such sweet little kiddos. thankfully, when I left they got absorbed back into my supervisor's caseload so were still taken care of .. just not by me lol. I still think about those guys!! First clients really leave a lasting impact.
You’re so lucky you were in person. I did mine virtually 😩😭
I'm starting my BSW school social work placement this September!! Super nervous but super excited!!!
so exciting!! I LOVED every day at my field placement. good luck!!
I’m starting in September too, just had the interview today and I’m so nervous 😩
I want to be a school social worker so bad and this inspired me even more ❤
you can do it!
I just finished my first year of Community College online.
I'm thinking about majoring in Social Work I'm currently in the Liberal arts program at my community college.
I also enjoy helping others and I feel I have a lot to offer to the social work field.
Your video gave a lot of great insight
congrats on finishing your first year!! I'm glad this video was helpful. Definitely look into the field of social work, there are so many different opportunities that you can do with a social work degree! you may have seen, but I have a social work playlist on this channel where I talk more about my experience studying it so far; those videos may be helpful, too :) please never hesitate to reach out with any questions
@@AnnaBea
Thanks Anna!
I will check out your other videos on social work, I just watched your chit-chat video on your plans after you graduate from Alabama.
Thanks, Anna I will reach out if I have any questions and good luck on getting your masters
Currently a junior in Highschool, I really want to be a social worker I can’t wait to help people :)
yayy!! I love that!! do you know yet which area of social work you'd like to do? (it's okay if not, I hardly do hahah)

What is the social work podcast? Where do you listen to it?
What can I do if I want to specialize in a few populations
Hey Anna, blast from the past here. You said you wanted to be a school SW. What are your thoughts now in 2024?
Hey,
I currently in my first semester for my MSW and been also placed in a school for crisis intervention. Can you share more about your experience and your role? Your videos have been so helpful.
Hi! I'm so glad the videos have been helpful for you. That's my goal! Crisis intervention roles for social workers can vary a lot between school districts, but at mine our crisis roles included $uic*de assessments, extreme behaviors or tantrums in a classroom, and well-child checks for kids who hadn't been heard from or attending school. To be honest, I did not end up needing to do much crisis intervention during my semester because not too many came up (thankfully).
how much debt are you in?
im so nervous for when i go into field placement im not sure how i will be to work my full time job , do school work , and manage the internship all at the same time.
you've got this!! it'll def be tough for sure but *fingers crossed* ultimately worth it 💙💙
Awesome! Thank you for sharing! I'm starting my MSW this fall at UCCS and I'm curious about school social work. What are your plans for after your BSW? Are you going into school work? Also, did you have an end of internship assignment, like a paper or something? THANKS!
Yayy for social workers!! After my BSW, I’ll be moving to ATL to complete my MSW through Fordham’s online program. I have a recent video that goes more in-depth of which programs I applied to and such, if you’re interested. I would love to continue working with schools, but also hope to get experience in a different area of the field for my MSW placement to be well-rounded :) For a final assignment, we created a anonymized case study of one of our clients to present and discuss to our seminar class.
Starting my field placement next fall, I am so nervous!!!!!! This helped a ton (:
i'm glad it helped!! you've GOT this!! do you have hopes for where your field placement will be?
Girl! What podcast were you talking about!?! You said the social work podcast but which one is it! I hope you reply to me because I’m super intrigued.
it's really just called "The Social Work Podcast" !! I know it's available on Spotify and I think Apple, too
i’m in my first semester of community college for human services/social work and i was wondering what are your thoughts on the difficulty level and pay! (not asking how much you make but if it’s sustainable)
I actually haven't started a career in the field yet! I just began my first semester of grad school earlier this week, but am planning on getting a social work job after that. From what I know, my supervisor of this internship lived comfortably but not extravagantly. School social workers if employed by the district are often on teacher pay scales! But it changes area to area.
@@AnnaBea thank you sm for the information!!☺️☺️sorry to ask more questions but how long is grad school after getting your bachelors because i hear varying things from different people but never get an average
no worries! I'm here to answer questions :) if you have a bachelor of social work, getting a master of social work is one year (called advanced-standing), if you have a bachelors in anything else, grad school is two years (typically split up into a generalist year and a specialist year for classes)
I guess it's important to mention that those lengths are for full-time students. If someone is part-time, it would take them double the time to take the same amount of classes
@@AnnaBea oh wow that cleared up so much!
Hi, when did you start your internship was it your senior year?
Yes! For me, it took place my first semester of my last year.
I’m in a high school, class 2022. Becoming a school social worker is my dream, I’m applying to colleges for my bsw. Any recommendations? Or bits of advice?
check out my social work playlist on my channel!! all of my social work - related videos are in one place so you can find the ones that interest you :) I'm so glad to hear you want to be a social worker! We need so many. As you get to college, I would recommend making sure you have both social work / volunteering activities in your life AND activities that have nothing to do with social work (like clubs or hobbies) that can be a break if you ever start to feel burnt out
@@AnnaBea Will definitely check out. Thank you for the recommendations! 🖤
how much debt are you in?
Your apples didn’t have cores
Having BSW can work in school setting?
It depends on the state! This was my field placement, not my job so I was an intern which has different requirements. However, in Alabama graduates with their BSWs can work in the school setting, but I know that’s not true nationwide.
Just wasted my time
Anna do you have Instagram page to contact with you? Could you write it down?
