What We Do:
Writing Center tutors can consult with you at any stage of the writing process on almost any writing assignment. Among other things, we can help you with brainstorming and shaping your focus or thesis; planning and drafting; and revising and improving your essay's development, organization, and clarity. We can also help you learn to use and document outside sources effectively, to strengthen introductions and conclusions, and to catch and correct your own sentence level errors.
And it's all free! You don't even need an appointment; we operate on a drop-in basis.
