An Introduction to the Writing and Tutorial Center - Supporting Faculty

The Writing and Tutorial Center offers individualized, text-based support for all students. Tutors work one-on-one to help students improve clarity, fluency, and organization in their written work. Sessions begin with a conversation about goals and assignments, and focus on developing arguments, structure, citation, and style. The Center is not an editing or proofreading service. Services include: ● One-time and recurring appointments (required for grad thesis mentoring) ● Walk-in sessions (last resort only; appointments are encouraged) ● Online tutoring (in-person preferred) ● Conversation sessions for second-language learners ● History of Art and Design content tutoring Each session is one hour and covers up to 5 pages of writing. Printed work is preferred. Students may also bring additional materials. Appointments: wtc@pratt.edu, 718-636-3459, or North Hall 101 Hours: Mon–Thu 10am–8pm, Fri 10am–5pm Faculty Referrals Refer students by emailing the student and cc-ing wtc@pratt.edu. Voluntary participation yields best outcomes. Faculty may also contact the Center for class-wide support
