The Writing Center is the place UNG students can get help on any writing they’re working on. Peer and professional consultants provide half-hour consultations focused on student writers. Sessions are offered both online and in-person.
We work with students throughout the writing process and across the curriculum to help develop writing expertise, use discussion and feedback to enhance their writing, and become better writers through conversation and reflection.
Most of UNG’s Writing Centers are run by Tutoring Services. The one in Dahlonega is operated by the English department and staffed by peer tutors. For questions related to that center, contact David Brauer.
All UNG students, faculty, and staff can use the Writing Centers on any campus and online.

Tutoring Services Writing Centers offer students access to In-Person sessions, Online sessions done via video chat, and eTutoring sessions done asynchronously. The Writing Center will work with walk-ins as scheduling allows. We encourage appointments to ensure that writers do not have to wait.
We see many students from English courses, and we help students working with writing in any major. We’ll also help with writing for applications, emails, professional documents, and creative endeavors. Consultants are trained to assist students at any point in the writing process, but "editing" suggests that they do the work for you. Instead, consultants model strategies that help you revise and edit your writing.
Note: We cannot evaluate what grade you will receive. Only your instructor can give you a grade, and consultants know that individual readers may differ in how they evaluate.
