What to Expect at Peer Tutoring

When coming to Presentation U, you can expect your tutor to meet you wherever you are in your communication project, whether you are planning, drafting, or revising. Your tutor will give feedback on your assignment to help you find strengths and possible improvements, as well as identify broader elements of success that can transfer to future projects. Tutors will empower you to grow as a writer and guide you through the proofreading process without making any changes themselves.  

Presentation U tutoring is available in three different formats and each can look and feel a little different.
