What to Expect at your Writing Center Appointment
Spanish Language/English Language (SLEL) Services
The Writing Center offers Spanish Language - English Language Writing Consultant Services both on-site and through the GSU Regional Online Writing Center.
You can schedule an appointment with an SLEL Writing Consultant or send in a paper on-line for revision suggestions.
GSU Regional Online Writing Center
You may send your paper on-line for revision suggestions or ask a general question about a writing assignment and a Writing Center Consultant will respond to your submission/question within 24 hours, 7 days a week!
Virtual Appointments
A virtual appointment is a hybrid between an onsite appointment and an online review of student papers. Students who would normally use the online writing center only, are now able to have access to writing help at all stages of the writing process by scheduling a virtual appointment.
If the appointment is for a paper review, students are asked to email their paper to gsgrowl@govst.edu, with the words "Virtual Appointment" entered in the subject line of the email submission before the time of their appointment.
At the appointed time, a writing consultant will call the student, and the student and consultant will discuss the student's concerns with his or her writing assignment. In addition, the writing consultant will review the student's paper over the phone with the student and provide revision suggestions based on the student's individual patterns of error.
If you are a GSU Student, you can schedule a virtual appointment by calling 708.534.4508.
Please specify that you are scheduling a Virtual Appointment and be prepared to provide a phone number where you can be reached at the appointed time.
