Organization Coaching

Organization coaching takes two main forms: mental and physical. Below, see some of the key components in each area that we build in coaching sessions.

Physical Organization

• Keeping materials neat and categorized

• Setting up binders into sections

• Having the materials needed at the necessary times

• Computer desktop

• Google drive

• iPhone home screen

• Sequencing notes and handouts chronologically and by unit

• Return materials to where they belong

• Clean up at the end of a work period

• Maintain order in personal materials

• Set up notes in a way that is easy to follow and remember

Mental Organization

• Sequence ideas appropriately

• Tell a story with a beginning, middle, and end

• Develop an outline or list for tasks and topics

• Prepare an essay coherently and with transitions

• Keep a train of thought in conversation and in writing

• Develop mnemonic strategies for remembering vocabulary

• Create visual pictures to map passages, notes, and study materials

• Seeing relationships between ideas: cause & effect, adding on, chronology, etc.
