Preparing for Academic Writing

The Writing Studio

The Writing Studio welcomes for all students, faculty, and staff, regardless of writing skill level. All writers improve with consistent practice and feedback. Writing consultations (30 minutes) at the Writing Studio are designed to teach various strategies to enhance your writing, research, editing, and proofreading skills. While writing coaches will not “fix your paper” for you, they will help you enhance your critical thinking, argumentation, and organization skills, empowering you to become a more confident and proficient writer for current and future writing assignments and tasks.
