Writing Centre

ECU's Writing Centre Two students sit at a small round table in a bright office space, working together. One student with glasses uses a laptop covered in stickers, while the other writes in a notebook. Behind them are two office doors decorated with colourful cut-out names, “LEAH” and “HEATHER.” A clock and artwork hang on the wall, and office chairs are visible in the adjoining rooms.

The Writing Centre

The Writing Centre helps students strengthen their writing, reading and studio communication skills.

We welcome all writers, whether you are starting a draft, polishing a final version or exploring how writing connects to your creative work. Our tutors are here to listen, ask questions and help you strengthen your ideas.

Two people sit in blue armchairs around a small round table, each with a laptop. They are engaged in conversation inside an office with modern furniture, a wall clock, and colourful artwork.
