The Writing Resource Center

Overview

Writing Resource Center tutors assist students with all types of written and oral communication for courses, regimental affairs, and employment. Tutors work within the context of the specific assignment or occasion, referring to course syllabi, assignments sheets, and other materials to gain a clear understanding of the expectations. During tutoring sessions, tutors focus on the writer, not the paper. Their goal is not to improve the document, but to improve the writer's skills. To that end, tutors strive to help the writer express ideas with coherence and clarity in the document. Tutors will not function as writers or editors. Students should arrive with a printed working draft of the document and should remain actively engaged in the learning process throughout the tutoring session.
