Our consulting services include
Individual consultations are open to all students at Anhalt University of Applied Sciences.
While writing academic texts, there are always situations in which a discussion about the text or about writing itself can help you to organize your thoughts, recognize problems and get back to work.
You can take advantage of individual writing advice at any stage of your writing process - even if you have not yet put a text on paper.
The writing consultation is individual and is tailored to the respective needs of the person seeking advice. As a rule, you present your concerns and we then work out solutions together. - We provide help for self-help.
A writing consultation lasts approximately 45 minutes. If necessary, subsequent appointments can be arranged or the consultation time extended.
- Evaluating and reviewing work or giving legal advice
- read complete papers or proofread and edit texts
- replace the supervisor's advice on technical or content-related aspects of the work
