Event overview

February 6, 2023

4:30 pm to 6:30 pm

Have an essay you need some feedback on? Looking for assistance with drafting your résumé and cover letter? Confounded by a grammar problem?

Visit the Collaboratory on Monday evenings to get help from a CapU Writing Centre peer tutor. These tutors are university students with strong writing and communication skills trained by CapU English instructors. They can:

  • Help you brainstorm, outline and plan your writing;
  • Give you feedback on résumés, cover letters, school assignments (any level) and creative writing;
  • Help you understand errors your instructors have flagged;
  • Help you understand academic integrity and avoid plagiarism.

This is a drop-in program and is open to all ages. If the session is busy, your session may be limited to 15 – 20 minutes.

Please note

  • Peer tutors cannot proofread your entire document, nor write your document for you.
  • Peer tutors will offer instructional editing to empower you to successfully write or edit your own work.
