Tutors can help you to
- clarify your goals,
- improve your organization and writing style,

- understand and practice academic writing conventions,
- understand the rules of grammar, sentence structure, and punctuation.
By proceeding with Writing Centre services, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to the following terms:

- write, rewrite, edit, or proofread your work.
- guarantee specific grades or academic outcomes.
- You are responsible for the quality of your work.
- Your instructor's or supervisor's advice takes precedence over the tutor's advice.
- Tutor's cannot help with take-home or comprehensive exams without written permission from your instructor or supervisor. Please have them email the Writing Centre with permission: writinghelp@usask.ca.
