The Centre for Academic Writing and Rhetoric (CAS) offers individual support for students working on written and oral assignments in either Swedish or English.

In our individual consultations, a tutor can help you get started on, or make progress with, your assignments. We can discuss strategies for proofreading and revising your text independently. We can also help you to evaluate the role of AI tools in your writing process, so that you can approach these tools critically and ethically.
