The Writing Center is a quiet, comfortable place for you to work on class assignments or meet with a tutor. The Writing Center is equipped with computers that run the full Microsoft Office suite as well as a printer, a scanner, and a small library of reference books, including current editions of the MLA Handbook and the APA Manual.
Peer tutors can help you with class assignments and out-of-class writing such as cover letters and scholarship applications. A tutor will work one-on-one with you at any point in the writing process, from brainstorming to revising. Tutors do not write or grade papers.
The Writing Center can be of the most help if you:
- prepare: identify specific issues/areas that you would like to discuss
- participate: actively discuss your paper with the tutor
- practice: make changes during the session and afterward
Sessions typically last 30-45 minutes. Peer tutors respect the confidentiality of your visit; a report form will be sent to your instructor only at your request.
