Virtual Writing Coaching

Writing should not make school feel like a battle. Yet for many middle and early high schoolers, staring at a blank page or dreading the next essay is exactly what’s happening.

 

We provide personalized, one-on-one virtual coaching that meets students right where they are by helping them start strong, organize their thoughts clearly, draft with less fear, and revise without melting down. This is real-time, supportive collaboration tailored to your child’s assignments, personality, and pace.

​

Who Is A Good Fit For This Program?

 

Grades 6-9 students who:

​

• Put off writing tasks until the last possible minute or avoid them altogether

• Freeze when it is time to start and don’t know where to begin

• Have great ideas in their head but struggle to get them organized on paper

• Lose motivation or confidence when it is time to revise and improve

• Feel anxious or overwhelmed every time a writing assignment comes up

 

This program works best when a student is concerned about their writing and open to making changes, even if they feel discouraged or unsure.

​

 

How It Works

​

• Weekly 45-minute Zoom sessions that are interactive and focused entirely on your child

• We tackle real school assignments together: planning, outlining, drafting, and revising in real time

• Short, manageable practice between sessions (never overwhelming busy schedules)

• Regular parent updates every 2 weeks so you stay in the loop

​

In every session we build the following practical skills:

​

• Breaking big assignments into small, doable steps

• Brainstorming and organizing ideas so they flow logically

• Writing first drafts with more ease and less self-criticism

• Revising effectively without starting over from scratch every time

• Developing habits and strategies that make writing feel less scary long-term

 

 

What Your Student Will Gain

 

• Clearer, more organized writing that teachers notice

• Growing confidence to tackle assignments independently

• Noticeably less stress around schoolwork and deadlines

 

**The biggest win? Watching your child go from “I hate writing” to “I can do this.”

 

 

Proven Results from Personalized Coaching

 

This approach is rooted in real success we have seen firsthand.

​

During the 2024-2025 school year, in our former microschool setting, an 8th-grade student with a processing disorder struggled with organization, follow-through, and confidence. Through highly personalized, one-on-one support, the student made remarkable progress.

​

With tailored strategies, clear structure, and consistent accountability focused on foundational writing (alongside reading and math skills), the student achieved substantial gains, including a multi-grade-level improvement in writing, reading, and math by the end of the academic year.

​

This experience showed us the power of breaking tasks into manageable steps, building skills step-by-step, and providing supportive guidance, especially for students who face extra challenges. Virtual Writing Coaching brings that same proven, individualized method online, so families can see similar meaningful progress when students (and families) commit to the effort.
