What to expect

At the Centre for Academic Writing and Rhetoric, we can help you improve your communication skills, but you also need to work to achieve these goals. Together we can go far.

CAS offers help with:

  • The writing process
  • The structure of texts
  • Language and scientific style
  • Summarising
  • Oral presentations
  • Study skills
  • Referencing
  • Critical and ethical use of AI tools in your writing process

Our services do not include:

  • Proofreading
  • Writing texts
  • Assessing or grading texts
  • Giving basic instruction in Swedish and English grammar
  • Helping with CVs and job applications

This is what you do: checklist

  1. Work thoroughly with your text before you come to us
  2. Do your work in plenty of time before you come to us and plenty of time before submission
  3. Make an appointment with us
  4. Email your text and the assignment instructions at least 24 hours before the booked appointment

This is what the tutor does

A tutor will read about three pages of the text and determine what you need to do to improve your writing, in your language or in your presentation. We will look at the structure of the text, the coherence, and whether the text is easy for your reader to understand.

This is what we do together

When we meet we will go through what you need to work on in your writing or in your presentation, and specifically in the text in front of us. Our conversation will help you gain awareness of what you need to do to improve your writing. We will also advise you on websites and books on writing and language. If needed, we might book a time for another meeting.
