Writing and Learning Center

Mission Statement

The Writing and Learning Center guides UIW undergraduate students in strengthening their reading and writing skills across disciplines. Our programs support students throughout the reading and writing processes, in a welcoming environment.

What We Do

Whether you're experienced or a novice at college-level reading and writing, learning in community can benefit your practice. We offer support for reading and writing in undergraduate courses across the disciplines.

• For reading, have a conversation with a tutor to learn proven strategies to enhance your skills, and take advantage of UIW’s specially designed AI program that will guide you through practice texts in your discipline.
• For writing, have a conversation with a tutor to develop and clarify your ideas, incorporate research, polish your prose, and organize your work.

Tutors have been recommended by faculty and trained to guide you throughout the reading and writing processes.
