Professional ESL tutors have specialized knowledge of English as a Second Language.

ESL tutors can help students:

• Understand an assignment
• Organize ideas before or during a writing project
• Clarify English vocabulary
• Deal with grammar issues
• Document research papers properly to avoid plagiarism - a serious academic offense
• Paraphrase authors' ideas so writing sounds better
• Prepare and practice oral presentations
• Practice fluency and improve pronunciation
  

ESL tutors send feedback forms to professors regarding each ESL tutoring session.

In addition to professional writing tutoring and oral presentation skills tutoring, peer tutors are available as ESL conversation partners.
