The Writing Centre is a free facility for all Memorial University undergraduate and graduate students in any subject, discipline, program, or faculty who want help with their writing. We are a peer tutoring centre which means that all of our writing tutors are university students. Our tutors are trained to engage and provide feedback to writers so that they can develop their skills.

The mandate is to help all students become better writers and critical thinkers whether it is with brainstorming, revisions, style, or just finding your voice. Our door is open to any student regardless of their writing proficiency.
