How Evidence-Based Video Modeling Lessons Engage High Schoolers

Teenagers learn best when they see skills applied in real-life situations. Everyday Speech uses video lessons featuring diverse, relatable high school-age actors to model scenarios your students encounter every day.

From navigating peer pressure and handling group projects, to resolving conflicts or preparing for job interviews, our video modeling lessons make abstract concepts concrete and relatable.

Student actors model real-life situations that feel relatable and authentic

Thought bubbles make inner thoughts visible and foster empathy

Every scenario shows the “why” behind behavior to strengthen social skills development

Easy-to-follow Units Make Teaching No-Prep

Every unit introduces a skill with a video lesson, then reinforces it with interactive games and worksheets. Our curriculum helps you scaffold skills over time and makes lesson plans effortless.
