Essential Duties & Responsibilities

Writing tutors are students or professional teachers whose goal is to share their knowledge of writing strategies with student writers. The tutor offers a reader's response to a given piece of writing and can coach the student regarding assignment instructions, writing strategies, and grammar conventions. A tutor's goal should be to help produce a better writer instead of just one piece of writing.
