The Center for Reading and Writing (CRW) offers one-on-one, face-to-face consultations for Ramapo College students on\u00a0ALL academic levels<\/strong>.\u00a0 Working to support Writing- Across-the-Curriculum (WAC) initiatives, the Center promotes writing-as-a-process and encourages students to seek reader responses from our consultants.\u00a0 Additionally, reading consulting is offered on deciphering and annotating texts, as well as close, critical and analytical reading.<\/p>\n

The Consultants<\/h3>\n

The CRW employs peer and professional consultants.\u00a0 Peer Consultants are second-, third- and fourth-year students who have been through a rigorous hiring process and trained in best practices in writing and reading tutoring. They are available to support your students in a variety of ways, in the classroom and the CRW, and remotely.\u00a0 We also employ professional ESL\/ELL Consultants who takes weekly appointments with any students who speak more than one language and would like English tutoring. The CRW depends on faculty to encourage promising students to apply for positions as Peer Consultants, so if you have any students who seem well-suited to work in the CRW, please refer them to one of our professional staff.<\/p>\n
