Meet Peabody's Writing Consultants!


 

Students in Peabody's Humanities courses can receive free help with their writing projects.

As long as you are working on a specific writing project assigned in a humanities class you can obtain help from a Writing Consultant. Seek help at any stage: to get things rolling if you are having trouble getting started, or to polish something that is almost complete.

If you are struggling with your writing, work with a Writing Consultant will actually save time! Sessions are less than an hour. If you plan in advance, two or three working sessions with a Writing Consultant on successive days will make a big difference.

Remember, a Writing Consultant cannot help you get started on a writing assignment if you have not been to class, not taken notes, or not read what's assigned! If you are severely behind in your course, you need a PEER TUTOR, not a Writing Consultant. Consult with your professor about this.

Different professors have different expectations. A Writing Consultant can better help you fulfill your professor's expectations if s/he reviews your assignment and whatever other guidelines you might have received in class. Plan to discuss these things during your consultation, so bring them with you to your consultation.
