The Write Place

Student getting help from ECC staff.

Free one-on-one help, on-campus and online.

Schedule appointment

Write Place tutors will guide you through brainstorming, planning, drafting, revising, and editing all kinds of school-related writing, including research papers, essays, reports, and scholarship or college admission applications. Tutors can also assist with reading skills. Working with an English tutor is a valuable investment in your language proficiency, providing a structured and personalized approach to language learning that can lead to improved overall communication and academic success.

The default appointment is 30 minutes per day. If a student still has questions after that half hour and the tutor is still available, the tutor can extend the session an additional half hour. After an appointment, students can stay, work on the assignment, and ask questions.
