Who are we? 

The Lane Tech Writing Center provides free, individual peer writing consultations to Lane Tech students. Whether you're drafting an application essay, struggling with a writing project, composing a paper for a class, or even writing in a different language, our trained tutors can help you at any stage in the writing process. Our focus is to cultivate strong, developed writers, skilled at communicating their own voice. 

We’re not judges, teachers or silent editors! We are active conversationalists and attentive readers who hope to see you grow and succeed! We are here to help you in any way that we can. 

Come to us with any and all ideas, notes, or drafts! Better yet, come with an open mind, a couple of pencils, and a desire to succeed. We can work with that.

Our Beliefs

The Lane Tech Writing Center promotes the development of personal writing style, writing instruction, and the use of writing as a ubiquitous, powerful, and necessary agent of self-advocacy and understanding. Writing is the vehicle which drives self-learning and sustains egalitarian academia and, as such, we are committed to promoting collaborative conversation and constructive learning environments in which writers can thrive. We aim to validate individual voices and, as a result, we are open to students of all different skill levels, backgrounds, and interests. We believe self-development can best be achieved through continual revision, critical inquiry, and reflection. We believe in making a better writer, not better writing - creating a better process, not a better product.
