Writing Center !!!!!!
I found the writing center extremely useful. I went in nervous, expecting to sit down and be distracted and stare off into space for the hour. I came in with no ideas, completely lost with my thoughts, and confused. By the use of the writing center, I was able to come up with a brilliant idea with just a push from a writing center tutor. I went to someone, whose name is escaping me right now, with a green mohawk and a cheery attitude. He worked in the drama department through Hofstra, had Dr. Lay for a few years, and was very familiar with my essay topic. The writing center tutor/teacher gave me leeway into answering my own ideas and questions. He made me read the sonnets out loud and diagnose every piece and line. He proposed thoughts and made me answer them myself which let me look inside my own mind to figure out my essay, instead of him giving me the essay answer. I'm glad that the writing center teacher tutor I went to was experienced with the Twelfth Night, he was able to write my paper with me instead of not knowing my topic. After I went to the writing center, I had a more structured essay with a focus instead of jumble. I heavily suggest the writing center and I will definitely be going back. I may even venture into this center for other classes as well.. But I haven't gotten my grade yet on this paper so all of these positive statements may be revoked depending on what grade I get. ;) Haha (Just kidding).
