The Writing Center and ESL Lab

GET help today! The Online English Writing Center and ESL Lab are open!

Online tutoring is available for ALL students enrolled in any English or ESL class. The only requirement is that the English or ESL student must be enrolled in one of the following lab classes: Tutoring 001, English 67, English 68, or English 108.

Students already enrolled in one of these lab classes can visit the Canvas site associated with their lab class to find detailed information about how to take advantage of online tutoring and other Writing Center services.

English and ESL students who are not currently enrolled in one of these lab classes can still enroll in Tutoring 001 at any time during this semester through the SIS portal. Tutoring 001 is zero units and, therefore, is free to add.

Online Services for the Writing Center and ESL Lab:

Paper submission via Canvas: Visit your E67, E68, E108, or Tutoring 001 Canvas Page for information on how to submit a paper online through Canvas. If you submit your papers and questions Monday through Thursday, we will try to get back to you within a day.
Questions/Help via EMAIL: You can also send an essay or a message directly to a tutor through Canvas email; however, it might take the labs a day or two to respond to an email. If you send papers through Assignments or ask questions on Chat, you are more likely to receive a quick response.
Live Conferencing with English/ESL tutors: If you would like to have a live conference to work one-on-one with a tutor to discuss a paper or any other concerns, visit your Canvas Page for a Zoom link.
