We know your name
Students aren’t just another number at UNK. They’re treated as individuals with different learning styles, needs and expectations. Here, we know the individual students and help them based on their individual needs.
Educating with care
At UNK, faculty and staff care about the process of education. They present materials in a meaningful way and meet face-to-face with students as much as possible.
Writing tutoring for Spring 2022 will begin on Wednesday, January 26th. The tutoring schedule will be posted here soon. For questions about writing tutoring, please contact the Learning Commons at 308-865-8905 or unklearningcommons@unk.edu.
The Writing Center offers free, friendly assistance with all writing projects at any point in the writing process. Writing tutors are available to assist UNK students with writing assignments in any class. Tutors are trained to ensure that students leave each session having learned how to identify and correct their own errors. Tutors will look for global issues like the thesis statement, organization, and argumentation and local issues like grammar and sentence structure. International students are encouraged to use the Writing Center regularly to help them gain confidence in their academic writing.
Writing tutors are available for appointments both in-person and on Zoom.
The Fall 2021 writing tutoring schedule is below. The Spring 2022 schedule will be posted here soon!
To request an appointment in the Writing Center, please submit an Appointment Request Form, call the Learning Commons Welcome Desk at 308-865-8905, or stop by the Welcome Desk in person on the second floor of the Calvin T. Ryan Library.
You may submit a paper for a writing tutor to review. A writing tutor will provide comments on your writing and return your paper to you within two to four days (not counting weekends). Tutors do not correct all of the errors in your draft; instead, they will help you learn how to identify and correct errors on your own.
