So I went and observed in the writing center after class on Thursday. I thought that the writing center was HUGE but it's not. It's nice and cozy and not as intimidating as I thought it would be. The girl that I was observing finished up her first session within ten minutes. The student only wanted a signature because it was required by her professor in order to turn in her final draft. So, basically the ten minutes was only used to read the paper. So far so good!
The next student basically wanted someone to proofread her paper. She had already typed it up and put a cover sheet on it and everything. She just wanted to know what she needed to fix in order to make it perfect. I guess all that roleplaying in class will help us out after all!
After observing I have come to the conclusion that being a tutor won't be so bad. I'm also reassured with knowing I will have a partner in there with me too.

I'm glad you're not too anxious about tutoring. Hopefully you'll enjoy the experience. As for procrastinating-- you have to decide for yourself if that's something you're willing to give up. You might try giving yourself some artificial deadlines. nw
