What's Our Mission?
The Reading and Writing Center (RWC) is committed to helping University of Florida students become better writers and readers. We aim to support independent learning and encourage scholarship by fostering writing and reading skills. We provide individual assistance to those wishing to develop their writing, better understand the writing process, and improve reading comprehension and study skills. Students of all levels and disciplines are welcome!
EXPANDED SPRING HOURS: We have added tutors for the spring semester, and we look forward to working with even more students than we did in the Fall. Our hours are now Monday - Thursday from 9:00 to 5:00, and Fridays from 9:00 - 4:00.
We encourage all students to call ahead -- our number is 392-6420 -- to make an appointment, but we will also work with walk-ins as we have the time.
Recommended Video: As we kick off a new year and new semester, evaluate your study strategies by watching our video on Study Tips for the Beginning of a Semester
Study Skills Videos
We've got 10 study skills videos on the site. The videos cover the most common weaknesses for which most college students seek help, including the following:
- Improving your Note-Taking
- Improving Reading Speed & Comprehension
- Improving Time Management
- Improving your Memory
- Improving your Test Prep & Test Taking, Parts 1 & 2
We have also posted 3 videos geared toward study strategies for various times during the term: Study Skills Tips for the Beginning of a Semester, the Middle of a Semester, and the End of a Semester.
