Please come prepared with a good understanding of your assignment and your professor's expectations. For example:
- Grammar and Style
- Sentence Structure
- Thesis statement(s)
- Introductory / Concluding paragraphs
- Topic sentences
- Organization
- Citations
Rather than proofread or copy-edit your work, we will work together in order to help you understand how to improve your own writing.
To make our meeting as efficient as possible, we ask that you perform the following tasks before our appointment begins:
- Do your best to finish your draft. If you are still brainstorming essay ideas, it is best to do so with your professor or classmates.
- Meet your professor. Make certain that you fully understand the assignment and expectations.
- Keep an open mind. Working with a tutor doesn’t guarantee a better grade, but it is an important step toward improving your performance.
