Tutoring and Writing Centers

Chowan University’s Peer Tutoring Program provides one-on-one assistance to Chowan students for undergraduate courses. Peer tutors offer course-specific help with homework, study strategies, planning, scheduling, and use of technology. They assist students in developing the problem-solving and communication skills that are essential to academic success.

The Peer Tutoring Center is located in Marks Hall 104. Qualified peer tutors are available during our regular hours, Monday through Thursday from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., and in the evening, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. Individual appointments and online tutoring sessions are also available. Students can come to the Tutoring Center on weekdays or email tutoring@chowan.edu to schedule an individual appointment. Emails regarding peer tutor availability and links for online tutoring will be sent out weekly.

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. – 3:00 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.
