Stephen North's "The Idea of a Writing Center"

"The first thing college writers need to know is that they can improve as writers and the second is that they will never reach a point where they cannot improve further." (74)

This quote summarizes the main point of writing. People can always improve their writing skills, but the process may years. not only writing classes can help to improve writing skills also specific life experiences can impact the writing.Students need to realize that writing can be learned and it is important not to give up. Tutors have to remind the students that even the best writers still experience the frustrations of writing.

A writer is a person for whom writing is more difficult than it is for other people.

Thomas Mann
German writer (1875 - 1955)
