Lets face it, yes, tutors would like to believe that they are perfect and can do no wrong when it comes to the writing world. The fact of the matter is that tutors are humans and in being humans they are flawed, even if they claim they aren’t. We have lives, classes and other crazy stuff that takes our attention away from the awesome papers that we help students out with. In a perfect world, nothing would distract us from the moment we walk through the writing center doors to the moment we walk out at the end of our shift. Sadly, this is not a perfect world.
What I’m trying to say is that some times we make mistakes when we are tutoring. We don’t mean to but it happens. I’ve had moments where I’ve giving the wrong information (such as formatting information) that I realize later on that was incorrect. We do try our best to be as accurate as possible and as correct as possible but mistakes do happen. If you happen to be one of the unlucky students that ends up getting some mistaken incorrect information please keep in mind that we are not perfect and we try our very best to be accurate. Don’t write us off because of one mistake.
We are more than happy to provide you with the resources on where we get our information so that you are able to find them on your own as well. Be sure to ask!
