SESSIONS

 


Writing Center assistants hold 25- and 50-minute consultation sessions with writers who have a specific project or assignment to complete. After making an appointment, writers are asked to arrive at the center on time for their appointment and to bring their writing projects with them along with any accompanying assignment sheets.

Sessions will be tailored to the needs of the writer, but we typically provide assistance with the following stages of the writing process:

  • brainstorming ideas for papers
  • formulating theses
  • organizing ideas
  • developing ideas
  • structuring arguments
  • identifying and correcting recurring mistakes in punctuation, grammar, and usage
  • revising papers
