Mission Statement

The City Tech Writing Center (CTWC) is a collaborative space dedicated to fostering the growth of student writers. We offer one-to-one tutoring, workshops, and resources for all disciplines and modalities – including for writing outside of academia – to help our writers develop skills they can carry into their professional futures. 

At the heart of our approach is the belief that every writer, regardless of experience or expertise, needs a reader. With this guiding philosophy, CTWC tutors aim to lead with listening and accommodate each writer with an approach suitable to their context. Whether you’re at the initial brainstorming or final revision stage of your writing, we are excited to hear what you have to say. We strive to create an environment where writers feel truly heard and are encouraged to articulate and understand their thoughts with greater clarity as we work together to demystify the work of writing.

For students, we offer:
  • one-on-one tutoring: see the WC Online link on the right to book an appointment.
  • specialized writing workshops: topics include how to revise an  essay, how to get started when you’re stuck, how to write a resume, and how to keep a reader engaged. 
  • online resources: these include both video and text-based resources for help reading and understanding assignments, drafting papers, using gender-inclusive language, revising, and proofreading. Check out the links under Tools & Resources.
