To begin with, as our name suggests, we aim to provide students with help specifically geared to assignments related to reading and writing. \u00a0Reading and writing, in our view, are not really separate things, although it’s possible to talk about them separately. \u00a0But it’s likely that, in a “writing session” you’ll be asked to read something, and that in a “reading session” you’ll be asked to write something.<\/p>\n

We expect that if you come, you’ll have some work that you want to accomplish: that may be a paper that you need to write, or a presentation that you need to give, or a book or article that you need to read. \u00a0We can help you accomplish your goals, no matter where you may be in the process of getting on with them, but it will help us to help you if you have (and can articulate) a clear sense of what you want\/need, where you are on the way to your goal, and what will define for you the criteria for success. \u00a0It helps, too, if you can bring along any\/all materials related to the work that you’re doing: at the very least, a copy of the assignment, and any related materials (e.g., textbooks). \u00a0A copy of the syllabus or relevant course guidelines can be helpful, too. \u00a0We have computers in the Center that you can use to find these things online, if you have access to them that way.<\/p>\n
