Academic Outreach will offer online writing consultations this summer to Academic Outreach graduate students. They will be able to speak with the consultant in real time using Elluminate, an eLearning solution. Services are available at no cost to all University of Illinois students, faculty, and staff from all disciplines and at all stages of the writing process. Our consultant will ask questions about your writing and help you learn how to improve your paper. Services offered will include
- Practical advice on composing and revising:
- Course papers
- Literature reviews
- Group projects
- Lab reports
- Theses and dissertations
- Multimedia projects
- Application essays
- Personal statements
- Résumés and cover letters
(Sorry, no proofreading or editing services are available.)
Please feel free to call Alison Weingartner at 217-244-9973 or e-mail for more information.
Services will be continued in the fall through the Writers Workshop (a part of the Center for Writing Studies).
