The Writing Center at East Blasts Off!

3...2...1...LIFTOFF! The Writing Center at East officially opened for business this past Wednesday, and the students who came in for help were very excited and pleased with the feedback and attention they received from the UNC CoachWrite tutors. I am very excited that we are able to offer this service to our students.

As we continue to expand the Writing Center's hours and staff, I wanted to share with you all that the Writing Center will be open ALL periods, as well as lunch, this Wednesday the 4th of February. A sign up sheet is located outside of my office door, Room 268 in upper Quad C, and students can come by and sign up there. If you have a student who you believe could use a little more one on one help with their work, feel free to email me and I will sign them up! We are hoping to have the Center staffed on parts of Monday, all day Wednesday, and possibly some on Friday in the future. The Writing Center is not just for English assignments! The tutors can assist with essay planning and organizing, research writing, creative writing, and more.

Please let me know if you or your students would like to take advantage of this resource! Thanks again for helping to promote the center and its work!
