The Writing Center at Stern College for Women provides a supportive environment where students can develop their writing and thinking skills. The Writing Center's peer tutors serve as active readers, asking questions, following up implications, and reflecting their impressions of the paper to the student. Tutors help students hone their ideas for various writing projects, from academic papers to personal statements. Whether student writers are brainstorming a thesis or revising a draft, our tutors help students develop an effective, systematic approach to the writing process.
