Join our site in five easy steps:
The Marist Writing Center offers free, one-on-one tutoring sessions to anyone in the Marist College community. We can work with writers at any stage of the writing process, to brainstorm, draft, organize, develop, revise, or edit, and we can help whether you are on your first or final draft. We are also happy to help assist with any type of writing you might be doing, from academic research essays to capping projects, creative writing to job or graduate school application materials. We cannot write your papers for you (or guarantee good grades), and we cannot copy edit papers either, although we will help you identify patterns of error in your writing and strategies you can use to identify and correct grammar errors.
In-Person Tutoring (LIB 334). We offer in-person writing tutoring on the third floor of the Library across the hall from the Center for Multicultural Affairs (LIB 334). Sign up for a time to meet with a tutor or drop by to chat with a front-desk assistant. You do not need to have a draft of your paper--just bring along your assignment and we'll help you get started. We can also help with in-progress drafts for any course on campus.
Virtual/F2F Tutoring. When using our Virtual/Face-to-Face tutoring service, students can video chat with tutors and get feedback on their drafts in real-time. Virtual appointments are very much like the in-person appointments we offer in that they are collaborative conversations in which both the writer and the tutor ask questions, share information, and think through solutions.
Email Tutoring. Our Email Tutoring service lets students upload a draft of their paper to our scheduling site and get asynchronous, personalized, written feedback from a tutor. Email tutoring is a great asynchronous option for ALL students looking to improve their writing skills!
