Writing Center


The Writing Center at Medgar Evers College (MEC) offers an array of services designed to help students with essays and other writing assignments. Our mission is to mold students into writers who are able to articulate original ideas both inside and outside of the classroom. CUNY Writing Across the Curriculum (WAC) Fellows and peer tutors serve as writing coaches and are trained to help students improve their writing skills across all disciplines. The center provides one-on-one tutoring services for students at all stages of the writing process. We emphasize structure, mechanics, organization, clarity, and style, as well as the development of students’ critical thinking and reading skills.

Visit us when you need help crafting research papers, essays, personal statement essays for scholarships and more.In conjunction with the library, the center conducts an array of grammar research, writing, website development, and graphic design workshops throughout the year. Workshops are led by CUNY WAC Fellows, librarians, and senior tutors. In addition, CUNY WAC Fellows and peer tutors work directly with professors to tailor group workshops for specific courses.
