Writing Resource Center
“[I]n a writing center the object is to make sure that writers, and not necessarily their texts, are what get changed by instruction. In axiom form it goes like this: Our job is to produce better writers, not better writing.”
-- Stephen North, "The Idea of a Writing Center"
SUMMER HOURS
We will be open during summer term (6/5-8/17) Monday-Thursday, 10am-2pm. We will take appointments only. However, if you walk in during open hours, and there is an opening or a cancellation, you can book that time. Appointments can be made by phone or email.
We can also facilitate asynchronous online consultations through email. Book an appointment and a tutor will review your paper and return with comments within 24 hours.
3) attach completed Tutoring Notes form and your paper
4) write in your requested appointment time along with any other pertinent information the tutor will need (assignment prompt, APA/MLA/Chicago style, etc.).
Please see our "Make an Appointment" page for additional policies.

Need help with an essay assignment? Confused about grammar rules? Or just want to polish your writing skills?
The CSUB Writing Resource Center (WRC) is here to help. We offer FREE tutoring, workshops, and other support services to currently enrolled CSUB students. We currently offer tutoring in writing, literature, linguistics, and MLA/APA citation.
At the WRC, our tutors are trained to focus on improving students’ overall skills, not just their grades. Rather than just providing “the answer,” we assist students at all stages of assignments to help them learn to think critically about their own writing in any discipline.
Our SUMMER HOURS are Monday-Thursday: 10-2p.m.
Call us with any questions at 661-654-6411.
If you have visited us recently, please take this short survey to tell us how we're doing.
