Tutoring
All students can access free drop-in tutoring at the Writing Help Centre (Murray 142) and at the Gordon Oakes Red Bear Centre (Room 230). Students can also receive free online writing help.
Note: Tutors cannot edit or proofread (i.e., correct the grammar and punctuation) your paper. They can teach you about writing, though, using your work as an example of writing issues you may need to work on. We cannot edit or proofread theses or dissertations.
Workshops
The Writing Help Centre offers a number of workshops each year, including workshops for graduate students. We also host regular Research and Write Night events, where students can come to work for four hours on a paper, sustained by coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and tutoring support.
To request handouts, slides, or recordings, please email the Writing Help Coordinator.

The software is free to all University of Saskatchewan employees and students to download to their personal device. The software makes the web, documents, and files more accessible - anytime, any place on any platform or device. It's great for people with dyslexia and other learning difficulties or anyone whose first language isn't English."
