Did you know that the peer consultants in the Center for Writing:
- model expert thinking and speaking about writing?
- coach your students to talk about the context of their writing – the assignment, the audience, the purpose?
- demonstrate strategies to organize, provide evidence and edit?
- help students across the disciplines build confidence in their thinking, speaking and writing abilities?
- have extensive experience as writers and intensive preparation to work one-on-one with their peers?
- consult online through the Center for Writing website as well as face-to-face?
- aren’t all English majors?
"The Center for Writing provides all this and much more," remarked Dr. Susan Callaway, director of the center. "Please encourage every student to take advantage of our free service."
