McNEESE STATE UNIVERSITY
The Write to Excellence Center (WTEC) is a free resource to help students, faculty and staff develop and strengthen their writing skills.
Our tutors provide guidance for all steps of the writing process, from brainstorming to final draft revisions. Tutors are prepared to help you improve your writing in any academic discipline. In addition, we can help you break down your assignments into manageable chunks and pace yourself. You can also use the space for study.
Tutors can also provide assistance with other forms of professional writing, including résumé development and writing for academic publications. While tutors do not proofread or line-edit for you, they can help you develop your personal proofreading skills. To schedule an appointment, visit mcneese.mywconline.com.
Students can also receive assistance in understanding literature and other reading materials from classes by indicating on the appointment form what services they need. All appointments are in the WTEC and are scheduled through the same system.
While face-to-face appointments are more effective, students may opt to make e-tutoring appointments, which are asynchronous. For e-tutoring appointments, you must attach your essay prompt as a Word document to your appointment block (do not send PDF or shared docs, etc.) and also attach assignment instructions. Tutors have up to two business days to respond with comments. There is a helpful video for this on the mcneese.mywconline.com page, which you’ll see after you sign in.
Not sure you’re in the right place? If you’re looking for help with your science, mathematics, or engineering classes, stop by the Math and Science Tutoring Center for additional resources (also located in the Frazar Library).
I am a McNeese graduate with a bachelor's degree in Family and Consumer Science and a concentration in Child and Family Studies. As a student, I competed on the rodeo team and served on the SGA board. I earned my master’s degree in 2022 from the University of South Dakota in Educational Administration and Leadership with a concentration in Adult and Higher Ed. I have over 13 years of experience in adult education and 20 years of educational experience.
My favorite part of being a Freshman Advisor is helping students navigate their new life routine as a college freshman by offering support with in-person office visits or by email to help students meet their goals. I always remind students of my favorite BB King quote – “Education is one thing no one can ever take away from you.” I believe that supporting students is vital to a student's success.
In my spare time, I raise registered American Brahman cattle, and I enjoy all the "country girl" things like hunting, fishing, growing a garden and cooking.
