Student Reviews: 
"I hadn’t thought of using whiteboards or the notes app for reminders. I also hadn’t realized that there were so many different modes of reminder creation and that it is better to use more than just one. When deciding which tools to use, you should be aware of the resources available, such as which medium you have access to (you can’t create a bulletin board reminder without a bulletin board), how long the reminder is (would it fit on a post-it note?), and when you might need the reminder (if the reminder is at home and you’re not, that reminder does nothing for you).​  ​Regularly sorting/cleaning out your backpack/other things regularly and organizing anything you may need to keep for the future.  It is helpful because it makes sure that the items are easily available for future use while keeping your backpack light(er) and organized.​ ​" ~10th Grader, July 2021
 
"I like your strategies of chunking, and categorizing time, and writing everything down to visualize the day.  It helps me overcome “this is insurmountable” ADHD kind of feeling."  ~College Freshman, Aug. 2021
 
"I learned how to use the Cornell notes to quiz myself and better remember information by covering up the original notes and rewriting the information.  It would benefit me by helping me remember information I learn in lectures so that I can use it on tests. I like how you have me do activities for each of the things you teach me so that I can learn how to do them properly and put the strategies into use in the future.  I like how you create fun activities to go with each thing you teach. They are both effective in helping me learn and fun for me to do."  ~Rising 9th Grader, June 2021
