Student Writing Support (SWS)

The Center for Writing’s Student Writing Support program helps writers develop confidence and effective writing strategies through collaborative one-to-one writing consultations.

Our writing consultants listen to writers, read and respond to their written work, pose questions that help them clarify and articulate their ideas, and affirm the experiences and abilities they bring to their writing. We value all writers and their life experiences, worldviews, and languages, and we seek to provide a supportive space for all writers to share and develop their voices.

Student English Language Support

Student English Language Support (SELS) is a free service that offers 45-minute consultations to international undergraduate students to help further develop their English skills. During a consultation, students can work with trained consultants on any English language skill, including reading, writing, speaking, listening, pronunciation, and cultural adaptation. Students can bring in specific asignments or work on more general English language goals.
