• Helping visitors evaluate aspects of their writing, including thesis development and content organization.

• Meeting clients wherever they are in the writing process (from brainstorming stages to the final revision) and providing professional feedback on how to improve the current draft and/or the visitor's writing in general.

• Visiting classes or special events to familiarize students with The Jill and Marvin Willis Center for Writing services or to present a lesson on a specific aspect of writing.
