Rivier University tutoring

Get a tutor's written feedback on your own Rivier draft, or a study guide that walks you through your program's scoring guides.

Your work stays yours

Your paper is yours from the first line to the last. Your tutor teaches, comments and explains; your school login, quizzes and exams stay in your hands.

Your syllabus and Rivier's academic integrity policy set what outside feedback each course welcomes. A study guide fits every course.

Three kinds of help

Most Rivier students start with one of these, and many use all three across a term.

Feedback on your draft

You write your paper. Upload it with the scoring guide, and a tutor returns written comments: where it meets each criterion, where it falls short, how your structure and evidence hold up, and what to fix in your APA 7 citations. You make the changes.

  • Comments on every scoring guide criterion
  • Structure, evidence and clarity
  • APA 7 citations and references

Study guides

A plain-language walkthrough of your program and its scoring guides, with a plan for your next assessments at Rivier.

  • The courses ahead in your program
  • Scoring guides explained in plain words
  • A week-by-week study plan

Writing, research and editing tutoring

Work with a tutor on writing, research and editing: from turning a scoring guide into an outline, to choosing peer-reviewed sources, to polishing your draft line by line yourself.

  • Planning and outlining to the scoring guide
  • Library research and peer-reviewed sources
  • Editing your own draft, line by line

For nursing assessments, a tutor checks how your draft uses current evidence, links it to patient outcomes and follows APA 7.

Grades and what earns them

Rivier courses grade written work against a rubric: each criterion has its own points or level. Your tutor shows you what each criterion rewards and how to reach the top of it.

What a top-scoring paper has

  • Answers every criterion in the rubric, in order
  • A clear thesis carried through each section
  • Current, scholarly evidence for each claim
  • Analysis that applies the evidence to the case
  • Correct APA 7 citations and references

What you'll write

Assignments Rivier students in these programs often write, and the ones tutors help with most:

  • Care plans
  • PICOT questions
  • Evidence-based practice papers

Common questions

What does a tutor do with my draft?

Your tutor reads it against your scoring guide and comments on each criterion, your structure, your evidence and your APA 7. You make the revisions, so every word stays yours.

Do you offer research help?

Yes. Your tutor teaches you how to find scholarly sources, judge their quality, take notes you can cite, and build them into your paper.

Can a tutor help with editing?

Yes. Your tutor marks grammar, clarity, flow and APA 7 issues in your draft and explains each one, so you can fix them and catch them next time.

How does writing tutoring help?

Your tutor works with you on planning and writing Rivier papers: turning the scoring guide into an outline, building each section and citing as you go.

What do I send?

The draft you wrote, the instructions and the scoring guide. Earlier instructor comments help your tutor see what to focus on.

Is there a study guide for my Rivier program?

Yes. Ask for one in the form with your program and course, and your tutor sends the guide and goes through its scoring guides with you.

Is my draft kept private?

Yes. Your draft and details are shared only with your tutor.
