Welcome to the SSH Writing Center

Writing Center Tutorials Reopen on August 19, 2024.

1. If this is your first booking, you must create an account with your @nu.edu.kz email address. Click "Register for an account" on the left panel. 

2. The room location is indicated after the name of the tutor. Online indicates that the appointment will be held via Zoom or another video conferencing tool. For online appointments, the tutor will inform you on the platform they will use. A white square indicates an available tutoring slot. 

3. Appointments are Limited to 45 MINUTES Maximum. The appointment begins promptly at the start of the hour. At the end of the session, instructors need time to write their post-session client report form and prepare for their next tutoring session. PLEASE BE ON TIME. You will be marked as 'missed' if you are more than ten minutes late.

4. If you must cancel your appointment, do so at least 3 hours before the appointment start time, to avoid being marked as 'missed'. After three misses, you are ineligible to use the tutoring services for the rest of the summer semester. 

5. While instructors in the Writing Center are happy to give feedback on the grammatical style of your paper, we do not provide copy-editing services.

6. NUFYP/NUZYP students cannot use this service. WCS 150 students must be referred by their instructor.

7. The work you bring to the tutorial must be your own, or you will be banned from making an appointment.

8. Limit your time working with the tutor to your appointment time slot.

9. Abide by the Student Code of Conduct while working with your tutor. Tutors have the right to terminate the appointment if you do not.
