Eat, Speak, and Surf!

Aloha, Bucs! Get ready to hang 10 and soak up the sun at the first Eat n' Speak of the year on October 3rd! The theme is "Luau", so get ready to go coco-nuts! Sign up sheet is on the door of the Writing Center. Cowabunga!


Lost Art?

Writing Center tutors were devastated today when they came across a piece of artwork without a home. Rachelle Charlie described the piece as containing lifelike qualities. If you know anything about the owner of this work of art, any news would be appreciated.

Calling all seniors! Remember that the writing center is more than happy to tutor college essays and give advice on standardized test writing. If you are having trouble coming up with a subject for your essay feel free to stop in and we will help you brainstorm ideas. Hope to see you soon!

On Tuesday, several of our writing center tutors spent a delightful hour visiting with Mrs. Betty Djokoto, headmistress of Wesley Girls High School--a boarding school in Cape Coast, Ghana.  She is visiting Berkeley as the guest of Mr. Johnson in order to establish an exchange between our schools.  Mrs. Djokoto is also interested in starting a writing center at her school, and we hope to be of help to her.

Welcome Back to the Writing Center!
It’s that time of year!  Once again, Berkeley is bustling with activity across all three divisions.  The start of the school year brings new classes, new teachers, new lockers, new teams, and new friends.
However, with all the excitement of the new year comes homework, papers, and projects.  When you feel overwhelmed with a writing assignment or need an extra set of eyes to read over your work, the Writing Center is here to help!  Stop on by during any class period and our tutors will be happy to assist you.
This year, the Writing Center has a lot more planned than just writing tutorials.  Plans are already underway for several contests with fun prizes and, of course, Eat ‘N’ Speak!  Exciting things are happening with the Writing Center this school year, and you won’t want to miss them!
