PEP (Peer English Practice)
Peer Advisers for Writing (PAW)
Peer Advisers for Writing (PAWs) are students who work in the Global Teaching Institute’s Academic Advising to give respectful guidance to their fellow student writers based on specialized knowledge in the areas above, which they have gained in their training to become Writing Advisers. PAWs use their training, writing resource, and their own experiences as student writers to help answer questions about academic writing in English. You can learn more about PAW at https://tiugtipaw.wordpress.com/.
