Peer tutors at Beloit’s Writing Works create a supportive and collaborative writing community. They don’t just fix —they work with you to learn how to make your writing better.

Writing Works tutors:

• help you understand an assignment, discuss any related reading, generate ideas, and make a plan.

• show you how to rework your ideas in a written draft — focus, organization, development, and other elements of effective writing.

• use the work of other writers as examples, and share tips about how to conduct research and use sources.

• model the mechanics of writing, from grammar and punctuation to citation format.
