TODAY! FOUNDATION WRITING SUPPORT! Foundation Writing Group (theme this year: Multilingualism) Every Thursday, 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM Hosted by Thu and Christie... Zoom link: Visit writingcentre.ecuad.ca/events/#foundation-writing-group OR e-mail [email protected] If you’re feeling unprepared at large about Spring 2021 writing assignments, we are happy to invite you to the annual Foundation Writing Group to better understand and practice Foundation year writing alongside other Foundation students. This group is where you can raise questions you’re too afraid to ask in class, answer other people’s questions, or simply just to check in with other Foundation students about their writing process. ABOUT THE FACILITATORS: Thu is a peer tutor who has worked with plenty of multilingual and international Foundation students on various genres, from the Formal Analysis, the Final HUMN essay, to yes, you guessed it the Exhibition Essay. She was editorial staff on the first Foundation Anthology and provided mentorship for the 2020 edition. Christie is a Foundation student and Writing Centre’s Foundation Outreach Assistant. Her pronouns are She/Her, and she is organizing the Foundation Anthology Project this year. Whenever she’s not busy typing away on her keyboard/sending cute animal videos to loved ones, you can catch her snuggled up with Timothy (her cat) or slinging coffee at the Vancouver Farmers Market. #foundationwritinggroup #foundationwriting #ecuadfoundation #ecuad #emilycarruniversityofart #emilycarruniversityofartanddesign #emilycarruniversity #emilycarrwritingcentre #ecuadwritingcentre #writingcentre #writingtutor

Was writing your Midterm essay a tiring, frustrating, and confusing process? Are you trying to grasp what everybody in art school means when they say writing goes hand in hand with artmaking?
