The Writing Centre is one of the five learning centres under UL’s Centre for Transformative Learning (CTL).
We offer a free and friendly place for all students (undergraduate and postgraduate) and staff to come and address any aspect of academic writing.
We are dedicated to providing all members of UL with the strategies and services to become more critical, autonomous, and confident academic writers.
We believe everyone can write.
Whether you require 1-1 tutoring tailored to your writing, or a space and time to focus on your writing, we have the supports you need. Our peer tutors help to identify your writing practices in order to assess and improve strategic effectiveness.
You can always drop into our office. We are open Monday to Thursday, 9am – 4:30pm and Fridays 9am – 1pm.
If you need a quick question answered or some resources to help yourself, we have a wide range of resources for anyone to avail of, at any time. You can also send any inquiries to writingcentre@ul.ie
Have a recommendation for a useful link? Is there a book you find particularly helpful when you are writing? We would love to hear from you.
The Writing Centre can be found in the Main building on the C1 corridor by Red Raisins/Starbucks. It is located in room C1-065.

The Five Learning Centres provide additional academic support to students at UL. Together, we also created the Digital Learner Support Hub (DLSH) which offers an online knowledge hub where you can access online resources independently from the five learning centres.
