E-Tutoring
MAKE THE MOST OF EMAIL WITH E-TUTORING
Using email, you and a writing tutor can work to clarify your focus and ideas, develop a sense of purpose and audience for your writing and systematically revise your papers. Tutors can help you at any stage in the writing process.
eTutoring is free and available to all enrolled 小黄片视频 Stark students.
RESPONSE EXPECTATIONS
You may submit your paper at any time. Tutors will respond during regular hours. Writing tutors will check for incoming papers and respond to those papers during the hours they are scheduled to work. Because tutors are also busy with live sessions, you should allow plenty of time for a response, at least a day鈥檚 turnaround time. Papers received on Thursday or late in the day may not receive responses until the next business day. Please plan accordingly.
- Expect the tutor to respond with "higher order" questions regarding your draft such as topic, purpose, audience, thesis, development, organization, etc. The tutor will try to help you expand your thinking so that you can develop a stronger paper. Do not expect simple "fix-it directions" or corrections.
- Allow enough time for subsequent email exchanges to reflect upon and respond to the tutor's questions and to revise and submit additional drafts for further feedback. Tutors will not be able to help you with proofreading and other "lower order" concerns (grammar, spelling, documentation, etc.) until larger issues are resolved. eTutoring can not be completed successfully at the last minute. Never send papers less than 24 hours before they are due.
