Writing advice for students

Peer to peer

The principle of writing advice is: advice at eye level. Our writing tutors are specially trained Bachelor's and Master's students. They are familiar with writing processes and techniques and are also really good listeners. Together, you can develop strategies on how to successfully develop your writing project.
