Welcome to the Writing and Speaking Center!
About the Writing and Speaking Center:
The Writing and Speaking Center peer tutors are here both to help you talk out your ideas and to help you see what you've said. If you've got something to write or present and you haven't started
yet, a peer tutor can help you brainstorm, plan, and begin. If you've already started, a tutor can look over your draft and coach you through your revision.
The Center tutors are students like you, from many majors and with many interests, and we've done the same kinds of writing and presentations you are asked to do. We've been trained to help with all kinds of writing and every stage of the writing process. We've also been trained to assist with speaking assignments. We can assist with the planning stages of a presentation, or we can provide feedback on one you have already started. Whatever your writing or speaking task, we're here to help.
This is a place where writers and speakers (and we're all writers and speakers) come together to talk about the craft of communication. You set the goals, and we'll help you meet them.
Your Friends,
The Peer Tutors
