Frequently Asked Questions.

  • Desk43 offers writing, editing, teaching, and learning services, resources, and in some cases, products for students, teachers, and working professionals. Online tutoring and other learning services, including test prep and essay reviews, are available for students in grades 6 - 12 as well as undergraduate and graduate students. Desk43 also offers educational and professional writing services ranging from course development to resume reviews to publication design. These services are geared towards teachers, schools, schools systems, state agencies, private entities, and adult job seekers.

  • Services are delivered online through synchronous and asynchronous platforms. Desk43 primarily works with clients using Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or Google Meet. However, for clients local to the Durham, Chapel Hill, and Raleigh areas, onsite and in-person services at a neutral location are available.

  • Cost naturally depends on the nature of the service provided. A standard essay review costs $25, and a standard tutoring session costs $45 per hour. Services involving major products, such as course designs, vary in price, depending on the project’s requirements and deadlines. Desk43 works with clients of all means—if a client needs a service, Desk43 will work with the client to provide that service. Profit is not Desk43’s primary motivation; service for the benefit of others is.

  • Desk43 is open Monday thru Sunday for both synchronous and asynchronous services. For synchronous services, clients can request or schedule appointments between the following times:

    Monday - Thursday 8:00 a.m. to 11:30 p.m.

    Friday - Saturday 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
    Sunday 1:00 p.m. to 11:30 p.m.

    When not hosting a scheduled appointment, Desk43 operates “open office hours” to receive inquiries, provide customer service, and fulfill contract orders.

    Please note, though scheduling an appointment in advance is preferrred, “drop-ins” are avialable if time, resources, and other factors allow. Always call or email beforehand to confirm availability.

    If time, resources, and other factors allow, Desk43 does accommodate in-person, on-site services for clients who are local to the approximate area and request such services.
