START YOUR JOURNEY TO BECOMING A BETTER, MORE CONFIDENT WRITER!

THE Writing Center OFFERS ONLINE TUTORING THIS SUMMER

The Writing Center provides free tutorial services to all currently enrolled East Mississippi Community College students and employees. Trained tutors, or writing consultants, will assist writers of all skill levels, during any stage of the writing process, from brainstorming for ideas to polishing a final draft. In addition, consultants will also offer feedback and assistance with writing résumés, cover letters, scholarship essays, and other academic- and career-related writing. We have developed a few options that allow you to meet with our consultants. As always, our services are absolutely free. You simply need a computer with internet capability.

Here are the steps you will want to take to make an appointment and choose which service best meets your needs.

#1. Visit emccwritingcenter.setmore.com. If you have never used our services before, please make an account USING YOUR SCHOOL EMAIL. This takes just a few seconds. Choose the time and day you would like to receive feedback.

#2. Decide which service you want. Your options will appear on the home screen at emccwritingcenter.setmore.com (Links to an external site.).

*You can choose a Submission-Only Appointment:

After making your appointment on the scheduler, you will submit via email the draft you want evaluated. Our consultants will offer you feedback and return the draft to you within a couple of hours.

*You can choose a Live Chat Appointment:

Choose Zoom or Video Chat when making your appointment, and a consultant will contact you with an appropriate link to join a live chat meeting at the time of your appointment.

ALWAYS remember to submit your WORD document for review prior to your appointment. See instructions below.

  • Submitting your WORD document for review (2 methods depending on your version of WORD)
  1. If you are using the online version of WORD through Microsoft 365, you will simply use the “share” button at the top right corner of your WORD document to send a link of your document to your tutor via email. You will still need to make an appointment using Setmore, and the option to send your assignment via email is also on the com  Choose this option and follow the directions.
  2. If you are using traditional WORD (not an online version), you will also make an appointment using Setmore and attach your document to the email address you will find at the com  

Hours of Operation for the Summer Term 2023: 

The Writing Center will offer virtual appointments Monday through Friday, from noon to 5 p.m.

REMEMBER THE WRITING CENTER CAN HELP YOU WITH ANY WRITING ASSIGNMENT, NOT JUST ENGLISH PAPERS.

Even if you've never visited our writing center on campus, we want to see you really soon either in the Center or on our screens! Please send questions or concerns to writingcenter@eastms.edu
