Welcome to the Writing & Reading Center
The University of Massachusetts Dartmouth Writing and Reading Center is part of the Academic Resource Center (ARC), a federal TRIO student support service in operation since 1976. Whether students need writing help, tutoring for courses in humanities or social sciences, skill-building, or support for physical or learning disabilities, the WRC staff is ready to help.
Staffed by peer tutors, our services are used by both undergraduate and graduate students. It doesn't matter if you have only one question or if you need long term assistance in one or more areas; the WRC exists to help students be successful at UMass Dartmouth.
Thanks to Nancy Oliveira, graduate assistant at the WRC, for compiling our Spring 2013 Newsletter . Thanks as well to all of our contributing staff members!
Congratulations to our NEPTA (New England Peer Tutoring Association) conference participants for their excellent presentation on managing challenging tutoring scenarios! You can find details about their presentation here.
