| What are writing tutors and how can they help you? |
|---|
Writing tutors are specifically trained to assist you with academic writing. They work with you to help you develop your writing skills, are available to help you with writing in all disciplines, can help you learn to evaluate your own writing, and can help you revise your essays. Note: On-line tutoring requires a computer with internet access. The steps below make On-line Tutoring a fairly simple process. Follow the steps carefully for best results.
Note: On-line Tutoring is NOT a proofreading service but a tool to help students to improve as a writer through comments, suggestions and guidance. Online Writing Center Tutoring Instructions |
| Turn-Around-Time |
Online tutoring is conducted on a first come first served basis. Therefore, manage your time accordingly in order to get your paper back with enough time to make any needed revisions. Each paper will be given 45 minutes of tutoring assistance per submission.
Your paper will be read when the tutor is in session from Monday through Thursday, with the exception of official college holidays. If your paper is submitted after 4:00 P.M. on Thursday, you should receive a response by Friday.
Although most papers are returned within 24 hours of submission, please allow up to 48 hours to receive your paper. If the situation arises in which you do not receive a reply after 48 hours, please resubmit your paper again.

| Appointment Verification |
Please keep in mind that if your instructor wants you to submit a Verification Slip to verify your tutoring session, you may print out your e-mail response given by your tutor as a verification slip.
