Writing Support

Whether you haven’t written a paper in a long period of time or just need guidance on where to start, our writing support team can help you. “We offer writing support to all undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in online courses at the university,” Writing Specialist Jillian Jackson notes. “We can assist with any stage of the writing process, including understanding the assignment and getting started, brainstorming, outlining/organizing, drafting, revising and citation formatting in both APA and MLA.” By scheduling an appointment with the online writing support tutors, you’ll become equipped with writing skills that help further prepare you for your career.

“The writing center has support specialists who help students write papers. All of these and more resources are free for students. Blackboard offers so many resources that have enabled me to go more in depth about the subjects I am learning. Having access to all of the support made learning at JWU Online even more enjoyable.” ~ Emmeline Orellana ’24
