The Writing Center is located on the first floor of DeTamble Library. Mr. Seth Allen serves as director of the library, writing center, and archives. The center offers one-on-one tutoring with student writing tutors to help you communicate clearly. The purpose of writing tutors is not to ‘fix’ your paper or anticipate how your instructor will grade the assignment, but to engage in a conversation about writing.
The tutors are trained to be patient, non-judgemental, and maintain privacy (i.e. your use of tutors will not be share with your classmates or instructor, unless requested). Tutoring sessions are offered primarily in person but can be conducted online. Tutors are available ‘on call’ to meet with students in the library or virtually by email or a Microsoft Teams meeting.
To request assistance, please email Mr. Allen, [email protected] call 910-277-5023 or drop by the library front desk.
