Writing Studio

Mission

The new Writing Studio is committed to helping University of Florida students and faculty meet their academic and professional goals by becoming better writers. We support independent learning and encourage scholarship by providing one-on-one consultations, workshops tailored to specific classes (graduate and undergraduate), and faculty retreats focusing on publishing original research.

Students and faculty at all levels and in every discipline are welcome!

Who are we?

Directed by Dr. Eric Vallee, the Writing Studio is staffed by consultants with extensive writing backgrounds. Most have graduate degrees, and many teach in the University Writing Program or English Department.  We are located in 2215 Turlington Hall, and our office phone is (352) 846-1138.

What do we do?

Schedule an Appointment

  • One-on-One Tutorials. The Writing Studio is a free service for current UF graduate and undergraduate students. Students have the opportunity to work one-on-one with a consultant on issues specific to their own particular development. Because our aim is to help students become more effective writers, we do not simply proofread or edit documents. We can, however, assist students to become better proofreaders and editors of their own work.
    • For help with citations and formatting, please refer to the UF Libraries and their resource page.
  • Classroom Workshops.
  • Writing Workshops for Graduate Students and Faculty.

There are no appointments or drop-ins for the rest of the Fall semester. Please check back with us in the Spring semester!
