We are a faculty-led staff of 33 graduate and undergraduate tutors from disciplines across the university, available to support you at all stages of the writing process. Our tutorials create a unique learning environment that offers one-on-one attention, a good conversation around your writing, and thoughtful answers to your questions.

• Writers are invited to bring in any writing project, at any stage. Your course papers, lab reports, graduate applications, and cover letters are all welcome, from budding idea to final draft.
• We don't edit or proofread, but we can help writers identify weak areas, and work with them to improve.
• Each session agenda is set by the student writer.
• While we do work on grammar and sentence-level concerns, our first focus is on guiding a student's revisions at whatever level they identify as appropriate, and so we frequently provide a solid sounding board for a writer's ideas, arguments, analytical moves, and use of evidence.
• Our tutors come from a variety of disciplines, and writers are welcome to make an appointment with a tutor from a specific field or area of expertise.
• Sessions are 45 minutes long. Writers are invited to schedule one appointment a day.
• We welcome writers who are working with English as a second language (ESL). Several of our tutors have experience with ESL-specific issues, and we can also help writers avail themselves of different online and written resources. Our goal in working with ESL writers remains the same as our goal for native speakers of English - that is, to support and guide an ongoing learning process.
• Writers should come prepared with a copy of their paper, the assignment if possible, and their own ideas about what they want out of a session.
