FOR PARENTS: Does your intelligent, amazing child soak up much of your family time trying to find things at the last second, making everyone late? Do they scramble with working on projects at the last second? Do they simply have too much stuff in their room? 

Are they not working up to their potential because something always seems to get in the way of a task? Teens face different challenges from kids--not only with managing their space but keeping track of homework, their schedule, and often too many clothes. Wouldn't it be nice if they could be more organized? Not only that, but different teens have different strengths--and these can affect what methods work for them and what methods don't. 

LEARN: This class is the first step in learning the principles of organization that will help them tame their own room and space on an ongoing basis so that they can easily find what they need when they need it. 

TAME: Once we sort out what strengths your teen has, we'll learn to hone these strengths and build upon them so that what works well in his/her/their room is maximized.  Students will learn how they can leverage their natural disposition to take charge of their space.

LET GO: By the end of class, students will learn what to keep and what to let go of. Because the best things in life aren't things.  

COST: If you look at the reviews below, you'll see how other parents rave about the results. Not only will a short class like this help your teen feel more organized and put together--you will be saving your own time and energy in the long run so you can do all the other things that you need to do.   

There is nothing this instructor enjoys more than taming chaos.  As a teacher of teens, kids, and college students for over 25 years, I've noticed that students who excel in college are almost always consistently organized and ready for what comes next.  A long time fan of Julie Morgenstern and Marie Kondo (organizing goddesses), I'm also savvy about the use of time management skills and bullet journals since my job has always relied upon self-scheduling multiple projects and a need to tame the paper tiger that comes with being a writer.  I've been helping friends tame their offices and schedules for years, and now I'm happy to offer this class to teens who are bright and know they can shine like Hermione--but for whatever reason are mired down and as a result often seem disorganized to others.  

提供的家庭作業
Each day students will be asked to use the concepts we learn in class to finish the task we started, whether it’s sorting, purging, or organize their clothing, books, toiletries and other room contents. In addition to finishing the daily project, students will be assigned one task for homework before class the next day. Students will be quizzed the next day on the new concepts that they've learned. Sometimes homework will involve finding containers for items or removing items from the home to Goodwill or other charitable organizations. This homework will involve parental help.

At the end of each day we'll review what concepts we've learned and assess the student's strengths in this area. We'll look forward to the next day's tasks and visually measure our progress.
