There is a global Microsoft 365 service degradation affecting University access to Outlook email and, in some cases, other M365 applications. You are advised to use alternative communication channels. Existing enquiries submitted through the Services Portal continue to be progressed, with updates remaining accessible to students. We encourage students to regularly check their enquiries via the Portal for the latest information and outcomes, while Outlook services remain unavailable. If you need support, contact the University Service Desk on 9351 2000, Student Centre on 1800 SYD UNI (1800 793 864) or Protective Services on 1800 SYD HLP (1800 793 457). Students can connect with Student Wellbeing via the Student Wellbeing Portal.
Collaboration and conversation are crucial tools in the writing process. Meeting with a student writing fellow can help you invent and clarify ideas, identify strengths and weaknesses in your arguments, and improve the structure of your writing to achieve the desired result.
The Writing Hub provides a space for these extended conversations that are not always possible in a classroom setting. We can help you at every stage of the writing process, from interpreting essay questions and devising arguments to understanding how to reference correctly and edit your own work.
Sessions are designed to build on the instruction and feedback students receive from their instructors.
Individualised writing support sessions are available for all undergraduate and postgraduate students in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences and students from other faculties enrolled in WRIT coded units of study.
Our Student Writing Fellows are advanced writers who have undergone specialised training to provide constructive peer support.
Offering assistance in eight different languages, our team can help you gain a better understanding of your own writing process and how to improve it, even if you are already a confident writer.
They can also help you interpret feedback from instructors and develop better planning and time management skills that will serve you well throughout university and beyond.
Sessions begin in Week 4 each semester.
Sessions will be delivered at varying times Monday to Friday in Weeks 4 to 13 of the semester. There are no sessions during the mid-semester break, or on public holidays.
Sessions are held online, via the Writing Hub portal – book online for a one-on-one session.
