Writing Center

The Writing Center is located in the Library in Scott Hall and the staff provides students with a friendly supportive team to help you succeed at college level writing. Our Writing Center tutors do not edit or proofread essays but instead focus on the ideas and content of essays. Appointments are suggested, but drop-ins are welcome.

Student instruction for setting up a virtual appointment with the Writing Center:

  1. Send an e-mail to Sara so she can schedule an appointment time.
  2. Sara will then contact you to set up a time to either work through Zoom, Google Docs, or whatever works best for you.

Summer Hours of Operation

  • Monday 8am-2pm
  • Tuesday 8am-2pm
  • Wednesday 8am-2pm
  • Thursday 8am-5pm
  • Friday 8am-12pm

The Writing Center staff also provides online support by appointment only for online, dual enrollment and RRC students. To submit a request, email or call

Sara Burkholder – sburkholder@mgcc.edu or (540) 863-2903

If emailing, please be sure to include your name, question(s) and requested appointment time.
