Welcome to the Mount Writing Centre
EMF 203 (Library, main level) | bookings: writing@msvu.ca or Bookings | drop-in: Friday 1pm to 3pm
Experienced tutors at the Writing Centre help students with academic, professional, or creative written work for undergraduate and graduate programs. This includes all stages of essay and research papers as well as slides, interview questions, creative projects, and grant or program applications. Whether you’re fresh out of high school, have just arrived from overseas, or are coming back to school after several years, our tutors will help you meet your writing goals.
Tutors discuss, read, suggest, and make changes with you. They won’t simply correct papers for you; instead, you will work together on the text. Our aim is to help you learn to do these tasks yourself!
Access core services:
