- For ESL/Reading/Writing: You can expect constructive feedback on your writing. We will not edit your papers. Since we offer assistance in writing in all disciplines, it would be helpful for you to provide us with information regarding the type of paper (research, class assignment, etc.), the due date, the textbook information if relevant and the name of the professor.
