Savvy Shout Out: John Burnett

Today I want to shout out a young man who’s doing WONDERFUL things on YouTube to help school counselors. If you haven’t already seen John Burnett on social media giving dozens of helpful tips and advice to school counselors, then you’ve been missing out! It’s been so exciting watching Counseling With Mr. B. grow on YouTube.

John is a middle school counselor who posts weekly about “All things school counseling!” He recently started his 11th year in education, and he has served in various school roles including as a Spanish teacher and assistant principal. On his channel, he shares about planning a comprehensive school counseling program as well as tiered intervention strategies. I love that he also shares mental health tips and coping skills.

John doesn’t leave any stone unturned. No matter if you’re a veteran counselor or beginning your very first year, he’s got something helpful on his channel for you. Here are just a few videos you should check out:

In this video, John shares 10 things you should be doing to be successful as a
first year counselor in your first 30 days.
In this video, John shares 6 tips to help school counselors stay organized.
I love this video with his tips for creating calm down kits for your students.

John also has a Facebook Group called The Learning Lab where mental health professionals and all educators can share ideas and network. I highly suggest you visit the Counseling With Mr. B. channel and see the variety of topics for yourself. I’m sure you will find something helpful and be glad you did!

Summer Counselor Conference

I hope those of you who attended the Summer Counselor Conference over the weekend enjoyed the presentations and learned some new things to carry you into the new school year. I enjoyed browsing all of the posts in the SCC Facebook group and seeing all of the pictures everyone posted throughout the weekend. I also enjoyed my speaker chat on Friday night.

If you did not have the opportunity to join us, IT’S NOT TOO LATE! Registration has been extended due to an overwhelming response. You can still REGISTER for the Summer Counselor Conference until midnight tonight. All of the speaker panels have been recorded and are included with all of the recorded presentations, and you don’t have to feel rushed at all to get it all done. If you RESTISTER TODAY, you will have access to everything through June of 2023. You won’t be disappointed!
