Writing Workshop Tutors
Writing Workshop tutors offer assistance at any point in the writing process: brainstorming, outlining, polishing a final draft, or preparing a piece to submit for publication. Students can reach the tutors by email or find them during their office hours. Each tutoring session aims to improve key aspects of a piece, not always to polish it to perfection. Tutors can also help graduate students meet the writing goals set by their faculty mentors.
Studies show that integrating consistent feedback through revision is one of the best ways to improve writing in the long term.
Appointments
To make an appointment, in person or via Zoom, email the group at tutors@western.edu or contact any individual you especially want to work with: Andrew Wayrynen, Jack Betz, and/or Kelly Makela.
