A peer tutor in the JCCC Writing Center is primarily responsible for providing critical feedback on student writing. To accomplish this task the tutor must:
-
be familiar with all resources--hand-outs, reference books, computer software, manuals--located in the Writing Center
-
answer grammar hotline questions
-
attend tutor training meetings
-
write articles for the newsletter
-
know how to use computers
-
be aware of and able to use a variety of strategies to work with a diverse clientele whose writing skills cover a wide range of ability
Help with writing assignments is just a visit, a phone call or a click away.
