      steve b IT IS NOT A SCAM. a lot of people cannot deal with working with oppressed communities. Because it is a very draining job with the emotional pain and lack of resources !! Social workers fight social injustice!!

      She kind of explains it in Part 2. Basically, she had previously worked under the Mayor. With that political backing, it isnt hard to see how she was able to get to that salary in under a decade.

      Extremely surprising. I was thinking more like 40k-60k.

    She is in Boston, cost of living is higher. Her salary reflects her educational background and hard work.

    This needs to be in every school. This is the person I needed when I was young and lost.

    I am super glad I found your channel! I’m in my last year at McGill University pursuing a BSW and minor in Education. I’m applying to UC Berkeley Master of Social Work and Ive been debating on which program to specialize in: aging, children & youth, community social work or school social work. I really like working in school and with youth and I’m glad I found your channel. Thank you again!

      Ms. Alves has a Master’s Degree in Social Work and I believe the second is in Education, as she taught for 3 years before obtaining her MSW.

    I have very bad anxiety and stress and have a hard time focusing on schoolwork and tests and I have a D+ in math. I don’t know if I should see a social worker or not but I’m only 11.

      Don't worry about it too much, you should talk to a guidance counselor or a teacher.

    • @neb-roqket8739
      @neb-roqket8739 Před 5 lety +4

      Doesn't hurt to ask. If you feel you need to, do it. They will guide you to where you should go. Don't be scared to ask!

    • @godislovedayany5098
      @godislovedayany5098 Před 3 lety +1

      Don’t 👏🏻 be 👏🏻 scared 👏🏻 to 👏🏻 talk 👏🏻 to your 👏🏻 teacher!!!! If you have a D+ ask permission to go to the school counselor and tell them you need help in that class like tutoring. Or you can talk to your math teacher and they might allow you to come early in the morning to their class and work on some work you need help with. Also,if your school has after school where you can finish your homework and have teachers there to help go. Ours is smart club,TU (Trojan university) and others that I can’t remember but they are after school programs find out what your school offers.

    Is it realalistic to assume you would be able to get a job with just a bachelors in social work?

    • @lisah8438
      @lisah8438 Před 4 lety +1

      You can but you probably won't be able to be a Clinical Social Worker. You can find human services jobs though. Like crisis counselor or something. Case manager or youth specialist.
