One of my biggest successes I think is the rapport I\u2019ve built with a few students I see regularly in the Writing Center. We go through their writing or homework, but then we have some time to decompress after a long week. I\u2019ve really missed making those connections on campus and I\u2019m very lucky to have this outlet to still experience some of that.\u201d<\/p>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">\n<p>Thank you to our four wonderful MWC tutors (left to right) for their hard work this semester: Marec Marhoul, Clara Giorgis, Elizabeth Price, and Katya Egorova.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Even during the fall 2020 virtual semester, the Russian language tutors at Dickinson\u2019s Multilingual Writing Center are hard at work.
