Need help with your
writing? Join the Writing Affiliates who will be reading International
Students' essays. They will provide constructive feedback and suggestions to
improve your writing. We understand expressing oneself in a second language is
extremely difficult especially when placed in classes with native speakers. So
we are offering an opportunity and space for international students to interact
with other members of NYU’s community.
Bring your current paper or project that you are working on to receive
feedback & tips!
