Note-taking — a vital and often missing skill for students — is at the heart of learning and writing. When students learn how to take notes effectively, they don’t just learn how to record, they learn to think, organize, and reflect.
This structured and interactive program helps students develop confidence and independence in note-taking through direct coaching and guided practice. Specific skills include how to:
- identify the main topic
- recognize important information
- organize ideas clearly
- build simple, effective notes
- connect reading to understanding and performance

Group FAQs
What if I can’t attend/miss a session?
Group fees are collected in full at the time of registration. Missed sessions will be charged to ensure consistency and commitment to the group. All fees are non-refundable and missed sessions are processed as no-shows.
What if my child is just outside the listed age range?
Contact the facilitator of the group. They can discuss your child’s needs with you, assess whether the group’s age range skews younger or older, and help determine if it’s the right fit.
Are group sessions covered by insurance?
Groups are typically facilitated by occupational therapists and billed accordingly. We do not offer direct billing, so please contact your insurance provider to confirm your coverage.
