Paper Partners

Meet with another Ryerson student who is trained to help with essay structure, clarification and style and talk your way through your essays and other writing assignments. Your partner will stop you at various points for clarification, correction, stylistic comments, and more. If you visit on a regular basis, you will find that your revising skills, as well as your speaking skills will improve.
