Writing Center
The Writing Center is located in the LR Building (Room 95), near the Student Success Center. The Writing Center is staffed with trained Peer Tutors who are here to help you at any stage of the writing process. Our goal is to help you become a better, more confident writer.
Tutoring is not an editing service. Our role is to question, respond, offer feedback, and assist you in using available resources so that you can develop a well-organized, grammatically correct writing assignment.
At the Writing Center, we can help you:
- Clarify assignment instructions
- Organize your pre-writing thoughts and ideas
- Read for comprehension
- Format your Works Cited or References pages
- Check for grammatical errors
- Write better essays and research papers
Appointments are necessary at the Writing Center. Drop-ins will be seen as tutor availability permits. You can also submit your writing assignment for review online. Your paper will be reviewed by the next available tutor and a response will be sent back to you usually within 3-4 days, with a longer delay during weekends, midterms and finals, or holidays. RESPONSE TIME CAN VARY SO PLEASE PLAN ACCORDINGLY. Online tutoring is only available during our regularly scheduled tutoring hours. Email your paper here.
To schedule a tutoring session call the Writing Center at 317-6171 or click here to make an appointment.
We suggest you use the AWC Writing Guide and the AWC Assessment Rubric to help you plan and write your papers. A variety of helpful links is also available on our academic resources page.
