Work with an Academic Coach

  • Create a Study Plan: Plan your study sessions, prioritize what matters most, and practice strategies that help you study smarter, not harder.

Work with a Librarian

  • Find Credible Sources: Learn how to locate scholarly and trustworthy materials for your papers and projects using the library’s databases and online resources.
  • Refine Your Research Topic: Need help narrowing your focus? The librarian can help you turn a broad idea into a clear, manageable research question.
  • Get Personalized Resource Recommendations: Receive suggestions for books, articles, and other materials that fit your topic and strengthen your final paper.

Work with a Writing Consultant

  • Brainstorm and Outline Ideas: Not sure where to start? We’ll help you shape your ideas and create a clear outline.
  • Craft Clear Paragraphs: Make your writing flow! Learn how to organize your thoughts and strengthen transitions.
  • Citations and Credible Resources: Learn how to find trustworthy sources and master your citations with confidence.
  • Revise and Polish Your Work: Learn how to identify ways to improve your draft before you submit your final paper. 

Whether they come for one day or all three, Chill, Plan, and Write offers a welcoming space to plan, focus, and finish the semester strong!

Please encourage students to take advantage of this event. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to email Martha MacDonald (mmacdonald@monroecc.edu) or connect by phone at 585-292-3396.
