Writing & Reading Center

The Writing and Reading Center at Central Carolina Community College (CCCC) wants to assist students with building strong foundations of essential writing skills as well as effective reading comprehension. CCCC students have free access to a range of services including one-on-one coaching and content specific workshops.

Currently, the Writing & Reading Center provides three different ways to receive coaching: In Person Coaching, Scheduled Virtual Coaching Appointments, and the Online Writing Lab.

Please remember to have your assignment prompt ready for your appointment.

Online Writing Lab

Students have the option of asynchronous coaching using the Online Writing Lab. If you have already completed an assignment and would like to receive feedback in a written form, this is an option. Be aware this service is not live and there may be a delay in response during high volume times of the semester (midterms and finals weeks).

You may contact the Writing and Reading Center for further questions and assistance via email at writingcenter@cccc.edu.

We understand that not all schedules permit visiting the Writing and Reading Center during the hours of operation, and we are pleased to offer the Online Writing Lab for your convenience.
