ENGL 0301 - Tutoring Writing

Credits: 2-3

Designed for students from all disciplines, this course will teach students to help their peers - now and in the future - with writing projects. The course will suit those interested in working as tutors or teachers and those interested in pursuing a career that involves writing and/or collaboration. Students will focus on improving their abilities to read, evaluate, and respond verbally to drafts. To this end, students will practice unpacking writing assignments, analyzing texts in different genres and disciplines, and providing feedback to one another. Students will also complete a number of formal and informal writing assignments, such as journal entries, a project proposal, and a research paper. Students enrolled in Tutoring Writing for two credits will not be expected to write the research essay and will complete the course by the first week in November.

Prerequisites: ENGL 0101  and ENGL 0204 , sophomore or junior standing, a 4-10 page writing sample, and permission of the instructor.
