Our Services
The Writing Center at Clovis Community College is staffed by trained tutors who will assist you with all of your writing and reading needs. Regardless of where you are in the writing process, we will help you:
At the beginning—if you need assistance with understanding your assignment, we will help you. Writing is a process that can be taught. We will give you the necessary tools to make you become a more confident writer.
Drafting—we will show you how to “fight the fear” of writing. Often the very first paragraph is the most difficult, and we will provide the training so that you will become a more effective writer.
Revising—we want to help you become an independent writer, so we will teach you how to self edit your work. Also, you will learn the necessary punctuation skills so you can become a confident writer.
Formatting papers—our tutors are trained in proper MLA/APA techniques of writing, and they are here to answer questions about how to set up your papers. They will also help with researching topics.
