Is there a way to make discussion board responses private between an instructor and learner?

I'm looking for a way to personally respond to learners in a discussion board through a private thread once their initial thread has been posted. Is there a button allowing instructors to toggle responses between responding to all learners and individual learners?

    I have seen this in other LMSs but not in Brightspace. Here is my work-around.

    I set up a "Single user, member-specific" discussion topic. I label this "Two-Way Journal". Then, when I want to follow up with back-and-forth on assignment feedback, or follow up individually on a discussion post, I might say, "Let's follow up in your Two-Way Journal."
