I am trying to ascertain: 1) how many writing centers there are in China, 2) how many of these are associated with U.S. or British universities, and 3) how many of these use peer tutors as staff. Can anyone help me?
Also this blog post says it is the first of five, but I cannot locate the other four. Any information greatly appreciated!
Best,
