Library Late Night Hours:

Online Tutoring:
You still need to schedule a time to meet with a tutor either by email
or phone (writingcenter@uttyler.edu or 903-565-5995)
• The only difference in online sessions, is you email your paper and assignment instructions to the writing center's email address before your appointment time, and, at your appointment time, you wait to get an email from us with further instructions.
• Online tutoring uses GoogleDocs for real time tutoring help
In all sessions, you must be an active participant in your session by asking and answering questions. The approach is to teach students writing skills and editing strategies; they do not edit papers for students. Our hope is that students will learn enough about writing and editing to make our assistance unnecessary in the future.
