CTL Student Learning Assistance is a program available to UNM students enrolled in undergraduate classes. Our mission is to enrich the academic climate at UNM and create lifelong learners.  

Writing tutors are committed to helping students become more proficient writers. They provide support to students enrolled in a variety of courses at UNM. Writing tutors help others in different stages of undergraduate writing, including brainstorming, outlining, drafting, organizing, and revising. Writing tutors provide helpful feedback and guidance on writing, mechanics, grammar, and style, but do not edit or write for others. Writing tutors may occasionally assist with developing and facilitating writing workshops. As a member of the CTL team, student staff attend weekly or biweekly training focused on writing-specific content and tutoring practices, which are designed to make student staff effective facilitators of student learning.  

 

Writing tutors:  

  • Facilitate student learning by helping students understand their learning process and modeling metacognitive strategies  

  • Provide writing support through one-on-one consultations (in-person, online, and asynchronously via e-mail) in which tutors listen to students’ ideas, read drafts, provide feedback, offer strategies and resources, and discuss writing assignments

  • Plan and facilitate occasional writing workshops for small groups or classes  

  • Serve as a liaison between departments and CTL writing services
