Are you the person to whom friends say, “Hey, could you help me with this paper?” Are you looking for an on-campus job next year? If so, consider applying to be an undergraduate writing consultant!
The positions are paid ($16.60/hour), and students usually work 6-8 hours per week. Writing consultants come from a diverse array of backgrounds and disciplines–so we’d love to see students apply! Writing Center work is meaningful, intellectually demanding, and helps you continue to grow as a writer. Sophomores and juniors are especially encouraged to apply.
Application materials are due October 17th. Interviews will take place in late October / early November. If you are accepted, you would then take the consultant training course UW 2111W, “Pedagogy and Practice for Writing Consultants” in the spring; the course counts as a WID.
Please contact Professor Hayes hayesc@gwu.edu if you have any questions
