RLC Writing Center

The Writing Center

The Writing Center provides peer support for student writers on all types of writing projects in any subject. Students also use the Writing Center for personal writing, application essays, resumes and cover letters. The Writing Center does not proofread papers; tutors work collaboratively with writers offering feedback and providing ideas and methods for editing and polishing their work. Our goal is to provide writers with transferable skills that will help them on future writing projects. We also provide students with additional resources such as dictionaries and grammar handbooks, textbooks, handouts, exercises, and instructional software for composing, editing, punctuation, and grammar basics.

How to Schedule an Appointment

During regular quarters, you can make an appointment with a peer tutor for a 25 or 50 minute session. (You may make up to two appointments per week.) To schedule an appointment, stop by the Writing Center during our regular hours or call us at 425-388-9406. (Sorry, but we are unable to schedule appointments by email at this time.)
