Wenatchee Valley College offers a tutoring service specifically for writing on Wenatchee campus. It is housed in Sexton Hall, Room 6004 and is called the Write Lab. Here is a description of their service: 
What we do is help students write better.  We do not fix anything.  We do spend quality/quantity time with individual students helping them discover how to improve their writing.  This all takes time.  We cannot be of any help to students “last minute.”
We do not usually make appointments.  The tutors take students on a first come, first served basis.  Students need to allot time for the process.

Monday through Thursday 8:00 am – 9:00 pm
Friday 8:00 am – 5:00 pm
