Starting a degree is overwhelming even as a confident writer. Many of us have been led to believe we’re “not writers” because of unsupportive academic environments, or because we’ve forged nontraditional paths to education. Whatever your circumstance, Skylight can help prepare you for the pace, conventions, and pressures of your university or pre-professional program. Absolutely everyone has a voice; we offer the skills to help you find yours and ace your next step. 

Skylight Writing packages provide a comprehensive curriculum based on college writing pedagogy and the latest in discipline-specific writing conventions. Our curriculum provides support with:

• Deriving a strong thesis statement

• Techniques for brainstorming and drafting 

• How to gather and cite evidence

• Revising and editing effectively
