Face-to-Face

Preparing for Your Session

• Upload your assignment directions and draft (if you have them)
• If you prefer working on a printed copy of your paper, please bring that with you
• Think about specific questions or areas of the paper you’d like to focus on (especially if you have a longer paper)

What to Expect

• Your writing coach will log you in when you arrive
• Your writing coach will ask you a few questions to see where you’re at in the writing process
• You may be asked to read your paper (or part of it) aloud
• The writing coach may take notes for you throughout the session
• The writing coach may ask questions, make suggestions, or provide you with additional information to help you finish or improve your paper
• Toward the end of the session, the writing coach will ask you if you have any final questions
• Then, the writing coach may help you develop a plan of attack for getting done everything you discussed
• You will be logged out and possibly asked if you would like to make any future appointments right away
• You will be emailed a survey to let us know how we did. Your response is encouraged, but will be anonymous to the writing coach
