The Writing Center is located on the 2nd floor of the Ethel K. Smith Library, adjacent to the ARC, and is a place where students, faculty, staff, and alumni can have one on one help with writing projects. The center is staffed by faculty recommended student tutors who have been trained to help others improve their writing. The service is free. Our tutors can help with any stage of the writing process—brainstorming, prewriting, organization, drafting, development, revising, etc.
The Writing Center is a free service available to all members of the UNCG community, including students, faculty, and staff. We offer one-on-one consulting in person and online about a variety of writing issues, from developing thesis statements and organization to citation styles and last-minute polishing. While most of our visitors bring in papers they are writing for courses, we also help with personal writing (application essays, cover letters, personal statements, and personal letters) and business writing (articles for publication, professional letters).
