This course matches a student with an experienced writing instructor for a semester-long series of tutorials to work on the student's writing. Because the course is designed specifically to help students who are working on specific concerns with their writing, the students must have major writing projects that will serve as the organizing themes of the course. The course is appropriate for students who are blocked in their writing processes, who struggle to complete essays and assignments, who have several incompletes in major courses, or who have some real anxiety about their writing in their academic fields. The course sets up weekly conferences between the student and a Workshop instructor to focus exclusively on the student's own writing projects. Because the course addresses students' concerns about disciplinary writing, it is not appropriate for students who are looking mainly to improve their basic ability to write in English.
Enrollment requires the instructor's approval.
