Writing Mentorship

Personalized writing support to help students build skills, confidence, and independence.

A 3-month private mentorship experience designed for students who need consistent guidance, personalized feedback, and a supportive writing coach beside them as they strengthen their skills. Through weekly sessions, students learn how to organize ideas, analyze deeper, revise effectively, and approach writing with more confidence.

This Is the Type of Support Students Need When:

They’re Ready for Long-Term Growth

Consistent sessions create the structure students need to steadily build and refine their writing skills over time.

They Want to Master Complex Writing

Develop deeper skills in analysis, structure, and clarity, especially for AP-level or college-prep writing.

They Need Ongoing Accountability

Regular check-ins keep students motivated, on track, and actively improving across units, assignments, and courses.

They Want Lasting Confidence

With continuous feedback and support, students learn to trust their voice and approach any writing task with clarity and independence.

What's Included

This package gives your student the time, structure, and support needed to truly grow as a writer. With consistent one on one sessions, we go beyond individual assignments and focus on how and why their writing works. Each session builds on the last, strengthening skills in analysis, structure, and clarity while providing personalized feedback and accountability. Over time, students do more than improve their work. They develop the habits and confidence to handle any writing task independently.

From Stuck to Confident Writers

Over the years, I’ve worked with students at every level—from reluctant writers to AP and college students. Here’s what that growth looks like.

My daughter loved this class, and the teacher had great communication!

Both my daughters enjoyed this class. When my 13-year-old had the opportunity to hang out with friends or take the class, she was adamant that her friends could wait until class was over! The girls both learned new ways to improve their writing over the course of a week.

Writing used to be a constant struggle for my child. Diana helped them feel calmer, more confident, and more capable—without taking over their work. The support felt thoughtful and encouraging, and we finally saw real progress in both their writing and their confidence.

My daughter loved this class. While she already feels comfortable writing essays, her biggest concern as she preps for the AP tests is writing under a time limit. Because of this class, she's already feeling much more confident in her ability to write her AP essays. As her mom, I can also see how this class has helped prepare her for university next year, where she will likely face more written assignments. Before, my daughter liked to spend a lot of time planning and plotting what she would write, before typing out what she felt was a nearly-final essay. Now, she's much more comfortable getting words quickly onto the page and going back in to edit. She also really enjoyed her interactions and time spent with her teacher. I would highly recommend this class.

Another incredible class from Diana Firestone. This was the second time my daughter took classes with this instructor (this and another essay-practice class), and we're so happy with the outcome. With each essay, my daughter is feeling stronger and better prepared for the AP exams this spring. I highly recommend this course and instructor; she's been great with my daughter, who was a confident writer but needed help with the timed aspect of the AP exams and with hitting the exact requirements for the best score possible.

Meet Your Instructor

Hi, I’m Diana.

After 17+ years teaching writing to middle school, high school, AP English, and college students, I’ve learned something important:

Students don’t become stronger writers from memorizing formulas.

They grow when they understand how writing works, receive thoughtful feedback, and learn to trust their own thinking.

Writing Mentorship brings the same guidance I’ve offered thousands of students into a personalized space where we can focus on your student’s unique goals, challenges, and growth.

Is this tutoring?
