What’s so great about peer tutors? Well, aside from possessing above-average writing skills, this select group of 15 students is nurturing, kind, compassionate, and has a great sense of humor. This is not happenstance. As director of the center, Lisa Breslin, an English professor, chooses the tutors very carefully. It is a part of the tutors' job to raise confidence in students’ writing ability — and often, inspiring relationships between tutor and student are formed. The tutors come from all disciplines, so if you are a biology student and want help from a science major, you can request a specific tutor when making the appointment.
 
The Center is open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to midnight — and it’s always full, so booking ahead is wise. And for those who have non-school assignments (like resumes or graduate school applications) — despair not.  If writing is involved, you’ve got a friend.
