Writing Tutoring
Breaking Down Writing Assignments Into Manageable Parts
Understanding the Assignment:
We begin by thoroughly reviewing the assignment requirements and guidelines to ensure a clear understanding of what is expected.
Brainstorming and Research:
We help students brainstorm ideas and identify key themes or arguments for their paper.
Guidance on conducting research and gathering relevant sources is provided to support their ideas.
Creating an Outline:
Students are guided in creating a detailed outline that breaks down the paper into manageable sections.
Drafting in Stages:
We work together to write the first draft one section at a time, starting with the easiest part to build momentum.
Feedback is provided on each section as we proceed.
Revising and Editing:
We work together in revising drafts for clarity, coherence, and alignment with the assignment requirements.
Students learn to edit their work for grammar, punctuation, and style.
Final Review:
A final review ensures that all parts of the assignment are complete and that the paper meets all guidelines.
Students are encouraged to self-advocate and ask their professor/teacher for final feedback before submission.
