We have several writing consultants who specialize in teaching writing to students who use English as an additional language. For the best possible assistance, please make appointments using the Undergraduate or Graduate Writing Support schedule. In our WCOnline appointment scheduling platform (https://UTK.MyWCOnline.com), locate “Display Options” above the calendar to access the “Show All ‘Writing Consultant Specialty’ Options.” Using that drop-down menu, select “EAL” to show the EAL specialist consultants.
Canvas Site for All Multilingual Students
For undergraduate and graduate students who use English as an additional language, a Canvas site houses a collection of resources and information about upcoming workshops and more.
Enroll yourself in the site, Resources for Multilingual Writers, using this link: https://utk.instructure.com/enroll/FTABWR
Undergraduate Students in ENGL 121
Your instructor’s office hours should be your first and most regular source of help. To ensure you receive the most helpful assistance outside of your teacher’s office hours, you must only work with our specialist EAL writing consultants in the Undergraduate Writing Support. In our WCOnline appointment scheduling platform (https://UTK.MyWCOnline.com), locate “Display Options” above the calendar to access the “Show All ‘Writing Consultant Specialty’ Options.” Using that drop-down menu, select “EAL” to show the EAL specialist consultants.
Please do not make appointments using any other schedule; click here for our English 121 appointment instructions.
