The Writing Center at Roanoke College
The Writing Center at Roanoke College is a place where writers working in any academic discipline, at any level of competence, at any stage of the writing process meet with trained peer writing tutors in informal, one-on-one tutoring sessions focused on writing. The Writing Center also sponsors workshops and creative writing playshops on a variety of writing-related topics.
Contact us to schedule an appointment, or just stop in to say hello. Drop-ins are welcome, if a tutor is available. Tutoring is FREE to all Roanoke students, staff, and faculty.
