For Students
- Freshman English
- Writing Tutoring:
The Writing Center is located in the Jeremy Richard Library. This location enables UConn Stamford students to receive assistance in writing skills enhancement in an accessible location. When students enter the Jeremy Richard Library, they should proceed towards the right corner section of the library, where they will find the Writing Center.
UConn Stamford students will be able to sign up for tutorial services at the Information Desk in the Concourse as soon as the schedule for a particular semester is announced. They also may call 203-251-8400 to request appointments by telephone. The Writing Center will offer appointments during the week that range from 9 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. The tutoring schedule will be available at the Information Desk or by clicking HERE. Walk-in appointments are also available on a first come first served basis.
When you arrange an appointment with one of our tutors, please be sure to bring the assignment sheet or your professor’s instructions. It is not necessary to have a finished paper. Our tutors are available to help you with every stage of the writing process from brainstorming to revision.
Our tutors are NOT proofreaders who will edit your work while you wait; rather, they will help you develop your writing skills and the ability to effectively revise and edit your own work.
You don’t have to work alone on your writing skills. Everyone can benefit from feedback and conversations with a qualified writing consultant.
Please feel free to e-mail the Director of the Writing Center, Dr. Serkan Gorkemli, with any questions: serkan.gorkemli@uconn.edu
