Writing Support: Learning Center Writing Support Information
The Russell E. Horn Sr. Learning Center provides tutoring support for writing assignments in
this class. Do you need help developing your thesis and ideas? Do you need objective feedback
when you’re drafting or revising your papers? Do you have questions about MLA, APA, or
Chicago formats? Do you want to improve your academic writing skills? The writing tutors at
the Russell E. Horn Sr. Learning Center are experts at helping students improve their writing.
Several tutors also specialize in working with writers who have learned English as another
language. Writing tutors will not edit your writing, and they won’t write your papers for you.
What they will do is offer you strategies to become a more effective and independent writer.
