The Division of Academic Enhancement offers resources specifically for international
students who are seeking assistance with writing and speaking.
Writing Tutoring
Writing tutoring is offered by appointment and in a drop-in tutoring center. For more
information on writing support in the Division of Academic Enhancement, visit Writing Tutoring.
ESL Conversation
ESL Conversation is an opportunity to meet with a native speaker of English to practice
English conversation. Our trained conversational English tutors are friendly and can
help you speak with greater fluency and correctness in an informal environment. ESL
conversation provides the setting for you to ask those questions you always wondered
about, like how to respond to the greeting, "What's Up?" Our conversational tutors
can be great informants about English and about American culture and college life
in general. For more information please visit DAE Foreign Languages Tutoring.
