Writers’ Corner: Tutoring with Pizzazz
The English Department has established a plush haven of linguistic nurturing that some Amarillo College students may even deem worth writing home about—perhaps from therein.
Newly nestled in the southeast corner of Ordway Hall is the AC Writers’ Corner, where trained tutors are standing by to help students of any discipline become more efficient and confident writers.
Students grappling with virtually any of the numerous writing assignments inherent to the collegiate landscape are welcome at the Writers’ Corner. Appointments will ensure priority treatment, not to mention coffee and donuts—call 345-5580—but drop-ins are strongly encouraged, too.
All such visitors will immediately discover that the new writing venue has a comfortable coffee-house motif and an explicit student-success function. Oh, and it’s free.
“The Writers’ Corner is all about helping students succeed in becoming more effective writers, no matter what their field of study or skill level happens to be,” Frank Sobey, assistant professor of English said. “We wanted to create a space that is both inviting to students and where they can receive prompt and expert assistance.”
