Tutees’ Testimonials

“The tutor I usually work with is always so helpful and encouraging! He really boosts my confidence in writing.” (Spring 2021)

“It was great to get an extra set of eyes. I realized that a lot of what I had written was unclear with insufficient context for someone not in the class!” (Spring 2022)

“Everything about this session was valuable to me. I had a lot of trouble trying to place my ideas into the paper. The tutor really helped me reach a clearer mindset in the midst of brainstorming for the paper.” (Spring 2021)

“I felt comfortable to ask any questions I had, but I also didn’t feel pressured to ask any questions. I loved discussing my writing with my tutor and talking through the ideas that I incorporated into my essay.” (Spring 2022)
