Writing Partners Program

The Writing Partners Program offers a semester-long relationship with one tutor for students taking multiple writing heavy courses, students who attended a high school in which the primary language of instruction was not English, or students who otherwise feel this support to be necessary. This extended, one-on-one tutoring relationship helps less experienced writers as well as those concerned with meeting writing demands in multiple courses gain skills in the writing process.

We match tutors with specific students to provide individualized guidance and support. Writing Partners develop an ongoing relationship with a particular student across multiple assignments with an aim to improve not only the writing product, but the writing practice. Writing Partners and their students decide when and where to meet outside of the tutor’s regular Workshop hours.

The Writing Partner program is for students who desire weekly contact with a writing tutor. Writing partners meet with their tutor for 2 hours each week. If you don’t anticipate needing this amount of dedicated time devoted to improving your writing, please visit the Writing Workshop and plan to meet with our highly trained tutors for one-off sessions when needed.
