Students in Humanities classes can get help from the department's Writing Center.  IF YOU ARE NOT IN AN UNDERGRADUATE HUMANITIES COURSE, OUR SERVICE IS NOT FOR YOU:  GO TO THIS PAGE INSTEAD!

Humanities students can find help one of two ways:

1. You can arrange a private consultation by emailing a Writing Consultant and setting up an appointment at a convenient time. Take a look here to see who is on staff, and to find e-mail addresses. It can't get much easier than this!!

2. Give us some information on this page and we will have someone contact you.  Don't worry about selecting a writing consultant--we will select one for you!

Peabody undergraduates in humanities classes can receive free help with their writing projects.

As long as you are working on a writing assignment in a humanities class at Peabody, you can obtain help from a Writing Consultant. (Not in a humanities class?  GO HERE.) 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, 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 meeting.
