Online Synchronous/Real-Time Writing Button

If drop-ins don't work for your schedule, consider an online appointment. Evening, weekend, and limited weekday hours are available. Take a look and see what works for you!

 

 

Online Asynchronous/Essay Submission Button

You can also submit an essay online for feedback. This appointment type is held online, with NO real-time or Zoom component, so it's great for busy schedules! You will share your document with a writing tutor by your chosen appointment time, and a tutor will provide written support within 24 hours of your appointment time.

 

Please note: Online writing submissions are now being done in Word, via Microsoft365 with your @mainecc.edu email address. Please follow these directions to properly share and grant edit permissions to your tutor:

  1. With your document open in Microsoft 365, select “Share” from the upper right corner of your doc.
  2. Select "Share" from the drop-down menu.
  3. Enter the Writing Center email in the pop out menu: SMCCWritingCenter@mainecc.edu.
  4. From the drop-down menu to the right of this text box (with the icon of an eye), select "Can edit/Make any changes" (with the pencil icon).
  5. Hit the blue "Send" button in the bottom right corner of the pop out menu.

You can also refer to this document for more detailed directions (with pictures!) on the new procedure to share your work.
