Faculty Resources

The Writing Center provides a variety of services to assist your student writers, including peer tutoring, workshops, and the Writer's Hotline.

Peer Tutoring:

As a writer yourself, you already know the benefits of peer review and naturally include peer review in your writing process. The Writing Center can help your students develop the same habits. Generally, we schedule students for 50-minute, one-to-one consultations and we are happy to work with students at all stages of the writing process.

You can help the Writing Center better work with your students by encouraging them to visit the Writing Center (preferably with the syllabus and/or any pertinent assignment sheets). One way to do this is to include a blurb out the Writing Center in your syllabus (download example). Often, faculty also request an brief Intro to the Writing Center workshop, during which a member of the Writing Center staff visits the class and informs students about our services. You can also suggest that students utilize the resources available on our website.

Workshops:

The Writing Center gives a variety of workshops by request. For further information, please visit our Request Workshop page.

Writer's Hotline:

For answers to short writing questions, your students can call the Writer's Hotline at (816) 235-2244.
