The Writing Studio offers Duke University undergraduates an opportunity to meet with trained writing tutors to discuss individual writing concerns. Graduate and postgraduate student tutors from a number of different disciplines staff the Writing Studio. We have one specially trained tutor whose main responsibility is to work with non-native speakers. Many of our tutors have had some experience serving as teaching assistants in their own departments, and others have had some tutoring experience as well.
All tutors go through extensive on-going training.
We are committed to providing you with the best help we can. The Writing Studio occupies four rooms on the second floor of the Academic Advising Center on East Campus. In addition, students have access to a computer lab we share with the Academic Resource Center. The main Studio is open for appointments from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday. Tutors are also available on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday evenings from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. at both Lilly Library and Perkins Library.
