Writer Coach Connection

Writer Coach Connection is an independent non-profit organization in the San Francisco Bay Area that offers assistance to English teachers to work with all of their students (regardless of level) in middle school through early high school. They train volunteer coaches to work with students in the classroom, meeting approximately 8 to 14 times during the school year, to challenge and encourage students so that they can express their thoughts and ideas in writing with confidence and pride. Volunteer coaches are trained periodically throughout the year.
