It’s not too late to become a writing coach this spring for students at
Berkeley High!  Enjoy the satisfaction of being an academic mentor—join
WriterCoach Connection™ today.  We still have spaces available in our
January training session which starts this week, and additional trainings in
February and March.  Contact us now to register.

WriterCoach Connection™ (WCC) pairs trained volunteers with students to help
them master the writing and critical thinking skills needed to complete
assignments and succeed.  Coaches commit to a regular, 1 or 2-hour/week
assignment and meet weekly, during the school day, to work one-on-one with
students in their English classes.

You can learn the step-by-step methods to coach students--including your
own--at one of our training sessions:

Session A:   Thursdays,       Jan 13 & 20,       6:30-9:30 PM
Session B:   Wednesdays,     Feb 9 & 16,        6:30-9:30 PM
Session C:   Tuesdays,         Mar 8 & 15,        6:30-9:30 PM

Improvement in writing can boost confidence and overall academic performance
while honing a skill that students will use throughout their lives.  For a
small investment of time, writing coaches support kids and teachers and have
a great opportunity to stay tuned in to what is going on at Berkeley High.
