The Writing Lab in Hass-Darr 110

Writing tutoring is available for writers at all stages of composition and for all papers across the curriculum. Tutors are trained to coach students to self-sufficient writing. The Writing Lab is a good place to get a second set of eyes to make sure the student has met the teacher’s requirements. Tutors will make sure what the student meant to say comes across in the paper and will help students learn how to identify and correct any minor sentence-level errors.
