Blog 7


Sorry for the delay in the post, I thought I had posted it last week but it only saved, never posted. My apologies.
Part 1:
This week in the writing center, I have only assisted one  person again. This time they were requesting grammar and proof reading on their cover letter. They had already turned the assignment in, just gotten it back, and was going to turn it in with corrections for bonus points. They had us look at all the red marks on their paper, and ask for assistance on which parts to change and which to keep. After fixing a bunch of commas and word choice, they seemed fine with the work they had accomplished, and left rather quickly. I learned that tutors at the writing center are not always viewed as the most helpful person to progress writing, rather as someone to make a few quick corrections.
Part 2:
Brainstorming
  Needs to post things only relevant to the
  More professional work needed.
 Less inappropriate memes.
Want people who look at work to be proud of your work. Link them to website or twitter that you won’t be embarrassed about
   How easy for you to alter website? Change to similar layout.
  Make website more informative and updated than facebook or twitter.
  I have several ideas to updates to website to make it more interesting. TONS of changes could be made just to the website.
  Daily and relevant updates to facebook/twitter.
  Provide followers updates about what progress is being made/events planning.
Part 3:
For one, she had several issues with grammar, mainly because English isn't her first language.
