Guidelines
- Appointments are to be set by the student to the instructor.
- Please bring all material or prompts associated with the paper to your appointment.
- Students should proofread all drafts at least once before your appointment. The tutors are not responsible for proofreading your entire paper or editing errors. We identify patterns of errors and help you to eliminate those mistakes in the future.
- If you need to cancel your appointment, you may do so. It is up to the student to reschedule all appointments necessary.
- Walk-ins are welcomed.
