The Writing Center is open to students of all levels interested in improving their writing in any discipline. Faculty offer individualized and group instruction in expository and creative writing, research and documentation, as well as grammar and usage. ESL students receive assistance in language development and learning.
In addition to the traditional tutorial session, sessions can also take place online via Zoom or through email. Students are also welcome to use the Department's PC lab for word processing and Internet research when classes are not utilizing the space. Weekly appointments and unscheduled drop-in sessions are available.
Tutoring is available in three instructional modes: Traditional face-to-face sessions, synchronous Zoom meetings, and E-mail.

Face-to-face tutorials will be offered in Bradley Hall (Y), Monday through Thursday,

Asynchronous E-mail Submission Request Form
You can submit your paper as Microsoft Word document through the submission form located
at this link. Since you will not interact with your the directly, the form requires
that you provide some information about yourself, the names of your course and instructor,
the instructions for the assignment, and your specific questions or concerns that
will help guide the tutor's response.
To schedule an appointment, click the link for the type of tutoring appointment you prefer and complete and submit the appropriate form. An appointment confirmation email will be sent to your NCC account that lists the date, time, and either the location of your face-to face tutorial or a Zoom ID number for your Zoom tutorial. If you request an e-mail tutorial, the appointment time in the confirmation email indicates when your tutor will begin responding to your paper. Your tutor will respond through e-mail. You will not meet with your tutor synchronously.
If you prefer to schedule an appointment by phone, you may call 516-572-7195 between 8:00 am and 3:00 pm, Monday through Thursday. You may also email us at wcenter@ncc.edu, but using e-mail to schedule an appointment is not recommended.
The Writing Center Brightspace organization course containing the information and links above is accessible to all NCC students on their Brightspace home page. This means you can make appointments online directly from Brightspace!
