I am an Academic Skills Advisor based in the Main Library and am available to provide help, advice, training, support and documentation to Undergraduate and Taught Postgraduate students undertaking research, project work, essays and/or dissertations. Support is provided in the form of one-to-one appointments.

Appointments:
These are arranged at a mutually convenient time and may be conducted in person, via email, or via Zoom. Through these I aim to enable students to develop all aspects of academic writing and study skills to enhance their academic experience and achievement. If you require an appointment please fill in the Online Booking on the ASC intranet including details of what training support you require and your availability.

Help available includes:
An introduction to learning at university either for new students or those turning to HE after a time away
Developing time management skills and reading strategies
Introduction to the principles of academic writing, for example, introductions, arguments, paragraph structure and signposting
Improve academic writing by writing clearly, concisely and critically, and by effectively editing your work.
Using feedback to improve work
Critical thinking
Dissertation writing

Please note we do not offer a proof reading service
