RESOURCES FOR YOUR JOURNEY

Whether you need a little guidance once in a while, or you benefit from regular academic support, you’ll find the help you need at Chowan. The Tutoring Center and Writing Center are free resources to students to assist in your academic journey. The Center is a friendly, comfortable place to study, and its computers are available for students who need to print a document or access Blackboard or their email, even if they don’t need assistance with writing or tutoring.

The Tutoring Center

Peer tutors offer assistance with course-specific homework, as well as help with study skills, planning, and technology.

The Writing Center

Trained tutors guide you to bring out the best in your writing assignments, from planning to completion.

Peer tutoring has been helpful to me because peer tutors help underscore what I’m learning in class, particularly when it comes to certain subjects. I can say that a student version is a lot easier to understand than that of a professor because, as a student, they understand where we are, how we may struggle and that we may be afraid to get help.

The
Tutoring
Center

Responsible and academically successful students are waiting to help you in a one-on-one environment. Whether you need help with homework, study advice, editing essays or more, our experienced academic assistants will personally guide you on the path of knowledge. Our assistants, in addition to helping with specific course-related needs, will tutor students in strengthening academic skills such as taking notes in class, planning a study schedule, reading for comprehension or using new technology.

Students who come to the Tutoring Center will receive help from a peer or upperclassman, so students will know their tutors care and can sympathize with the stress of academic pursuits. Your tutors have all been there themselves and can relate. Since many students need extra help during exams, the Tutoring Center, normally operating Monday through Thursday from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., extends their hours during Finals. No appointment is necessary, so just stop by the top floor of the library whenever you need assistance.

The
Writing
Center

The Hazel Griffin Writing Center at Chowan University is a resource available to all members of the campus community. We provide students the opportunity to collaborate on their work with a trained writing tutor. Our student writing tutors are selected from various majors and offer writing support in all disciplines and at any stage of the writing process.

Writers can get support as they plan, draft, revise, and prepare their writing for class assignments and other needs.

The center is staffed by a full-time faculty member and carefully selected student tutors and is open five days a week in Marks 118: Monday – Thursday 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m.- 9:00 p.m. and 9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. on Friday.

Students may drop into the Hazel Griffin Writing Center without an appointment any time during those hours.
