The first thing you want to know about them are things you and the person have in common. Also, by sharing classes with them. By sharing classes, you will more frequently be able to talk and make connections with them. Connection also doesn’t have to just be with other classmates; it can also be with family. By getting to know your parents more, you’ll feel more connected with them. Building connections may seem hard, but it really just starts with a chat.
