The Writing Tutors serve the core of the mission of the Writing Center at Lebanon Valley College. Tutors help our clients to navigate the mysteries of the writing process by asking the important questions, by being active listeners, and by respecting the ownership of the writing by the writer. We believe in the concept that writing is a process and that it is our role to help struggling writers to learn to how to use that process efficiently and effectively in order to succeed.
