On the Writing Center: It’s not really “working” when you go in everyday to do something that you love. I believe that everybody has a story worth telling or a story worth listening to—so I listen, and as a part of my job, I try to get students’ voices to ring louder and truer. There are other intricacies to the writing process, of course, but it all comes down to two rather simple questions: What do you want to say? How can you say it clearly? Helping students answer those two questions—that’s what we tutors are here for.
