UNDERGRADUATE STUDENT TESTIMONIALS:

AY2011-2012

My consultant was very helpful in giving me constructive ways to reorganize and therefore make the argument clear.

My consultant really helped me see the purpose of each section and how I am/am not supporting that.

My consultant helped me take the complexity and significance a step further.

The consultant was wonderful and would make me talk about what exactly it is I wanted to say in certain parts of the paper--this was very beneficial because I realized it was difficult sometimes to articulate it!

She took the ideas I had and helped me improve them without changing the message I was trying to convey.

He was very good with working with me to figure out what I was aiming at and where the evidence in my paper was leading me.

It was very productive, and he made it so I had to participate and think of the ideas of how to revise my paper myself. It really helped me!

AY2010-2011

He was patient while I talked on-and-on and tried to figure out what I was saying. His ability to follow all the various strands of thought I threw at him and reflect them back to me in a cogent way was amazing.

My consultant has helped me to: better organize my thoughts; look at my arguments from different angles; temper my writing when it got too polemical.

He was more than a constructive critic of my writing and organization; he really helped me think through the arguments I have been trying to make.

We had intellectual dialogue!

He pushed me to think more deeply about my analysis.

She was really good at providing direction but still let me be the one writing.

He helped me come up with arguments from my ideas.

He allowed me to do most of the talking and gave me specific suggestions based on my own words. He was very engaged in the entire process and supremely helpful!
