Masks and social distancing are required during face-to-face tutoring sessions.
This semester, students may also meet with a tutor virtually during the times specified above.

*If the TCCC Online Writing Center is not visible in Moodle, please email writingcenter@tricountycc.edu to request to be enrolled.
To maximize productivity during the allotted time, students may choose to email their papers to writingcenter@tricountycc.edu prior to virtual sessions so the tutor has a chance to review them; however, this is not a requirement.

Also feel free to drop in to the Writing Center if all you have is a quick question—such as how to document a source or how to fix an error that grammar-check has flagged.
Students can ask questions of Writing Center tutors by emailing writingcenter@tricountycc.edu. Include the following in your message:
Depending on the volume of students the center is helping, your message should receive a response within 1-2 days.
