How would one conjugate mejorar in this case? Would one even use mejorar in this case? I'm thinking mejorando, but that seems a bit unfit.

Usually (I'm not certain if always though) what is expressed by means of a gerund form inside a prepositional phrase in English, corresponds to the infinitive in Spanish (in prepositional phrase)...
"for the purposes of bettering" → "con el propósito de mejorar"
"for improving my Spanish" → "para mejorar mi español"
