Types of Tutoring
Video Tutoring
During a video tutoring session, you will meet with a tutor through a video conference called Microsoft Teams, which is similar to Zoom, so you must be available during your appointment time. You must download the Microsoft Teams app to participate.
Online Tutoring
Online tutoring is offered as a secondary type of session for students who are unavailable during our operating hours. You will attach your Microsoft Word document to your appointment form, and a tutor will download it and send it back to you via email with thorough comments on it. You do not have to be available during your appointment time.
Current COVID-19 Policies
The Writer’s Center is not currently offering in-person appointments, but you may make a video tutoring appointment during which you will meet face-to-face with your tutor in a virtual setting, or you may schedule an online appointment, and a tutor will comment on your draft and send feedback to you through email.

Online Tutoring Tutorial
PLEASE NOTE:
- All tutoring sessions are 45 minutes long. We cannot guarantee that tutors will be able to help you with every aspect of your paper within the session time period. Tutors will focus on the most pressing issues at hand and will encourage you to come back later as needed.
- You may only schedule one appointment per day. For example, if you know you would like to have multiple sessions on a given day, go ahead and schedule one appointment, then you can schedule a return appointment after that session as long as you make revisions to your paper between appointments.
- Please make sure you attach your draft and the assignment sheet as .doc or .docx format so tutors can review them electronically.
- To make the most of your Writer’s Center session, schedule appointments well before your paper is due because you’ll need plenty of time to revise your paper after the session.
