Making an Online Appointment

Students can also schedule 30- or 60-minute virtual meetings with one of our consultants. When you make your appointment, you must select “Yes - Meet Online” on the appointment form. These appointments are audio, visual, and chat enabled, depending on the student’s equipment and choice. Not all of our consultants are available for online tutoring, so be sure that you see ‘online’ under your consultant's name before making an online appointment.

Once you have scheduled a virtual meeting, log back into our WC Online scheduling system approximately 5-10 minutes before the start time of appointment (CDT). Once you open the appointment block that you reserved, click “Start or Join Online Consultation.” From there follow the instructions for sharing your paper and using the audio/visual/chat features.

During each session, you will meet with a highly trained writing consultant who will assist you in addressing your assignment demands, audience expectations, and any other writing-related concerns you may have. Consultants are here to help you in every phase of the writing process, including brainstorming activities to generate ideas, organizing, and refining your projects. Please note: due to the limits in the functionality of the online program, we cannot always address format questions in online sessions.
