Promoting the exchange of ideas in the one-to-one teaching of writing.
Subscriptions: $25-$30/yearAcross five issues per year and through numerous online resources, WLN: A Journal of Writing Center Scholarship promotes exchanges on challenges in tutoring theory and methodology, handling ESL issues, directing a writing center, training tutors, designing and expanding centers, and using tutorial theory and pedagogy.
"How do the articles in this issue of WLN fit together, and what do they offer us? My answer would be that there are various paths to change and growth, and the outcome often involves acknowledging difference."
