The Comparative Literature Writing Tutor Program provides one-one-one tutoring for students enrolled in Reading & Composition courses in the Department of Comparative Literature at UC Berkeley. Upper-level, undergraduate majors in Comp Lit and English are available for by-appointment tutoring sessions to help with any step of the writing process. Tutors are trained by experienced Comp Lit GSIs and are aware of the demands and expectations for writing within the Comp Lit R&C program. Tutoring is available at the following days and times in Barrows Hall. Students can sign up for 30-minute appointments. Appointment Times & Location: MONDAY 5:30-7 pm TUESDAY 7-8 pm WEDNESDAY 5:30-7 pm All appointments take place in the alcove outside of 4125 Dwinelle Hall or down the hall in 4104 Dwinelle. We're excited to work with you on your writing! Please consider the following when scheduling a tutoring appointment: Note that tutoring sessions begin promptly at the listed time (i.e. not at Berkeley time). Please arrive on time, or a few minutes early, to ensure that you can make full use of your session with the tutor: we cannot guarantee that you will receive a full twenty-minutes of tutoring if you are late. Please do not interrupt an ongoing tutoring session when you arrive, but wait for the tutor to finish with the previous student. You are welcome to take advantage of this tutoring service at any point in the writing process: tutors will be available to help with the early stages of brainstorming and organizing, with drafts- and revisions-in-progress, and with sentence-level writing issues. Tutors will not provide proofreading or editing services. Because of the constraints of a 30-minute meeting, tutors will not have time to read and discuss an entire paper with you, but will be trained to diagnose and discuss those aspects of the paper with which you most need help. To make the most of your time with the tutor, please come prepared to your appointment: bring your work and the prompt with you, and be prepared to explain the assignment and your argument-in-process, along with any difficulties you are having, to the tutor. In advance of your meeting, make a list of the most pressing topics or questions you’d like to work on with your tutor.
