“Improving the writer, not just the writing”

The Writing Center provides well-trained peer tutors that assist students with writing assignments at any stage of the writing process. Tutors provide constructive feedback and writing support with any aspect of writing from brainstorming ideas, clarifying arguments, to developing revision strategies in friendly, stress-free one-on-one sessions. Since their motto is to improve the writer, not just the writing, they do not edit essays for students.
