The Harvard Writing Center

The Writing Center at Harvard University is an invaluable resource for Summer School students looking to strengthen their writing skills. Peer tutors, who are advanced undergraduates at Harvard College, are trained to assist writers at all skill levels as they work to properly structure academic papers, hash out critical ideas, and improve issues of grammar and syntax. The center, located on the garden level of Barker Center at 12 Quincy Street, offers daytime conferences by appointment Monday through Friday. The center is also open for drop-ins from 7 to 9 pm Monday through Thursday. On Friday, from 7 to 9 pm, tutors are on hand at Hilles Library. For more information about the center's services or to schedule a conference online, visit the Writing Center website.
