About the PPCC Writing Centers
The Writing Centers, staffed by English faculty, offer free, one-on-one help for students with writing questions and trouble spots, big and small. For papers in any discipline, instructors can help in a variety of areas including critical reading, topic focus, content development, organization, research strategies and documentation, and helping students develop their skill of self-editing. While instructors do not proofread papers for students, they will help identify patterns of errors and ways to correct them as well as to review principles of grammar and mechanics and the nature of the writing process.

Students who visit a Writing Center, either by drop-in or appointment, should bring a copy of their writing assignment with them. Handouts covering common writing concerns are available, and the Centennial Campus Writing Center has a selection of free books for anyone interested. All Centers open the second week of the semester, and hours are posted on all campuses.
