Writing tutoring for Summer 2022 is available on a limited basis by appointment only. To request an appointment, contact the Learning Commons at 308-865-8905 orunklearningcommons@unk.edu. The Fall 2022 Writing Center schedule will be posted here in August.
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.

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.
