Writing Center

About

The Writing Center is a free tutorial service for 葫芦影业 CC students. Working individually with students, tutors offer assistance with any type of written work by talking through assignments, asking questions, and discussing recurring errors. Students can choose to visit a center for a face-to-face session, schedule an online session that is live with video and audio, or submit their completed work for written feedback.

Regardless of the subject, assignment, or stage of the process, all 葫芦影业 students, faculty, and employees are invited to use the resources available in the Writing Center. The ultimate goal of the Writing Center is to help students become independent, confident, and proficient writers.
