Charlotte was a ninth grader with a passion for English and creative writing but struggled with self-organization and deeper analysis. She sought a mentor who could guide her through the complexities of writing while encouraging her to express her unique voice. With a desire to improve her writing skills and confidence, Charlotte was eager to embark on a creative journey with a supportive mentor.
