writing centers
Essay assistance offices
Writing centers are support services, typically at colleges and universities, where students receive one-on-one help with their writing.
Tutors assist at any stage of the writing process—brainstorming, drafting, revising—across disciplines.
The philosophy emphasizes developing writers rather than fixing papers: The writing center helped me rethink my argument, not just correct my grammar.
