What it's all about

Hey I'm Sarah Ann, a tutor at Florida State University's Reading Writing Center. I'm doing a research project on Reading Writing Centers around the world. This is the place to post your experience of tutoring in your Reading Writing Center, answering questions like:

how your writing center is publicized (as a fix-it shop or creatign better writers)?

who takes advantage of the writing center (undergrads, graduates, PhD students)?
if your writing center is a free service offered by your university or do students have to pay?
what kind of training do you have to accomplish before you can tutor?
is it volunteer, paid, or credit based?
what is your style when it comes tutoring (directive or non-directive)?
how do you approach your tutees?
what kind of scheduling and filing system do you use (online, walk-ins)?
what is the environment of your writing center (building, people, how many can you tutor at a time)?
if you like working there (and why)?
how tutoring sessions go (specifically any that stuck in your head)?
is there anything culture specific about what you do and how you approach tutoring?

I'm excited to seee how RWCs work around the world and what we can learn from each other!
Wishing you the best of blogging,
Sarah Ann
