Writing Center
Improve your writing skills at the Writing Center. We offer free, one-on-one tutoring sessions (in-person and online) to develop your writing skills. Our tutors work with any skill level, from any class or discipline, at any stage of the writing process. While we are not a proofreading or editing service, tutors are happy to work with you on proofreading strategies and understanding mechanics.
We Can Assist You With:
- Brainstorming, organizing, developing, and clarifying ideas
- Structuring sentences, understanding grammar, and using proper punctuation
- Incorporating research topics and documenting sources
- If you need assistance with finding sources and doing research, contact the ACC Library & Learning Commons and schedule time with a librarian
- Formatting and word processing questions
