Maria Quintero, T.A. for the English department, has had an article entitled “Life at the University of Puerto Rico’s Arts and Sciences English Writing Center,” accepted for publication in The Writing Lab Journal, an affiliate of NCTE from Purdue University.
Her research, an ethnographic study of the peer tutors in the writing center, explores the unique ESL scenario in the only Writing Center in Puerto Rico, an island that due to its historical context, does not fall into any typical category in the tutoring of English writing.
