Juan Jose G-T – Peer Writing Tutor Fall 24 Cohort

The Chicagoland Writing Center Dinner Party was an incredible opportunity to connect with tutors from universities across the Chicago area. College of Lake County was the only community college at the event, and this gave us a unique chance to engage in rich conversations with peers from four-year institutions and compare our experiences. I felt truly privileged to be surrounded by such skilled writers, and the casual, relaxed environment allowed us to discuss our work openly and learn from each other.
