Tutoring & Writing Center
熊猫在线视频 the Tutoring & Writing Center
Throughout the academic year all Endicott students - undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral students - take advantage of the Tutoring & Writing Center and our opportunities to learn in community. All services are completely free to Endicott students.
Our mission is to inspire and encourage learning across the curriculum. Through our highly conversational and individualized sessions, tutors help students gain confidence, agency, and skill, ultimately becoming better learners, writers, and thinkers. To do this, our tutors seek to get to know the learners we work with, promote autonomy and ownership when facilitating sessions, and co-create an environment where openness, respect, and curiosity flourish.
In the Tutoring & Writing Center, we offer both content and writing tutoring to students. For both content and writing tutoring, we also offer community learning space where students can come together and work, think, and learn in community.

How is tutoring different from academic coaching?
Both Centers value the importance of social and intellectual connections in promoting learning and growth. The Tutoring & Writing Center differs in two primary ways. First, our support is specific to academic subjects and to elements of the writing process. In other words, students use the Tutoring & Writing Center for their learning and pursuit of excellence in a particular course.Academic coaching is more generalized and therefore focused more on time management, self-awareness building, motivation, and communication. Second, the Tutoring and Writing Center does not match students with particular tutors in the same way the Center for Academic Coaching matches students with specific academic coaches. We may help students learn about our team of tutors based on who’s available, and we may help students secure a session.
