Fall 2008 Hours: Monday through Thursday 10-8 pm, Friday 10-5 pm
The Writing Center works with current UT undergraduate and graduate students, faculty and staff on a variety of writing projects in any subject. Experienced, polished writers read, review, and respond to papers in order to assist other writers individually at any stage of academic or personal writing.Writers meet with Writing Center tutors in order to generate ideas, organize notes and thoughts, and receive feedback on drafts or completed papers. Types of documents that are often brought to the Center include:
|
Essays and Research Papers |
Grants, Articles, Proposals |
|
Personal and Creative Writing |
Professional Publications |
|
Theses and Dissertations |
Job Application Materials |
|
Application Letters and Essays |
Group Tutoring |
The Center's goal is to provide writers with transferable skills that will help them not only on one paper, but also on future assignments.Thus, Writing Center tutors do not proofread or evaluate papers. Rather, tutors work collaboratively with writers, reading student texts and offering questions and suggestions to help guide revision and proofreading. To schedule an appointment, please call 419-530-4939. We look forward to working with you.
Presentations: The Writing Center offers classroom presentations and workshops on a variety of topics. Please contact us at 419-530-4939 for more information.
