See A Consultant

Spring 2021: We open Monday, January 25, at the times below for drop-in Zoom conferences for any course. No in-person conferencing is planned this semester. 

Do you need:

• To find the Consultant assigned to your class? If so, click here!
• To get drop-in help at the Writing Center? Find Zoom rooms for Consultants here (UR login credentials required). See the hours and specialties at the bottom of this page first, so you get the right sort of help at the right time.

SPCS students have the option of seeing our specialist Consultant, Emily Ball, who works directly with SPCS faculty. To meet with Ms. Ball, you can find out more here (UR login credentials required).

How to prepare:

• Have a copy of your assignment for the Consultant, and a draft you can share via Google Drive or as an e-mail attachment during the conference. We will not handle paper drafts in order to reduce the risk of COVID-19.
• Practice with Zoom, before going online. The Consultants will be trained to help you share your screen and resolve technical issues, but it's valuable to know in advance how to do these things, to make the most use of the conference time.
• Be patient. Normally, conferences should last 30-45 minutes. We will help everyone we can, on a first-come, first-served basis.
