1-2-1 Consultations at the TJM Graduate School

22 May, 2024

The postgraduate journey can be both exciting and overwhelming, and at the Thomas J. Moran Graduate School, we understand the importance of tailored support to ensure the holistic development of all our postgraduate students.

Central to the support we offer students is our offer of one to one consultations, designed to address individual needs and empower our postgraduate students to fulfil their academic potential.

The hallmark of our one to one consultations lies in their personalised nature. Each session is crafted to suit the specific requirements of the student, ensuring that they receive targeted assistance where they need it the most.

Whether you're grappling with academic writing, struggling with time management, honing presentation skills, mastering poster creation, or preparing for significant milestones like differentiation, APR, or the viva, our consultations are here to guide you every step of the way.

Some of the key benefits of engaging in one to one consultations at the Thomas J. Moran Graduate School are:

Tailored Support: No two students are alike, and neither are their challenges. Our consultations are customised to cater to the unique needs and goals of each individual. Whether you're a postgraduate taught student navigating your dissertation or a postgraduate research student delving into complex research projects, our consultants Dr Abbie Edgar and Dr Fabiana Fausto McCracken are equipped to provide guidance tailored specifically to your academic journey.

Holistic Development: Beyond addressing immediate academic concerns, our consultations aim to foster holistic development. We not only provide assistance with specific tasks like academic writing or presentation skills, but also empower students with strategies for effective time management and critical thinking - skills essential for success both within academia and beyond.

Preparation for Milestones: Many postgraduate students encounter significant milestones along their academic journey, such as differentiation, APR, or the viva. Our consultations provide invaluable support in preparing for these pivotal moments, offering guidance on how to effectively showcase your work, articulate your ideas, and navigate this process with confidence.

Confidence Building: Facing academic challenges can often be daunting, leading to a lack of confidence. Through personalised support and guidance, our consultations aim to instil confidence in students, equipping them with the tools and knowledge necessary to tackle any obstacle head-on. Whether it's refining your writing style or perfecting your presentation techniques, we're here to help you build the confidence to excel.

Focused Attention: In a group setting, it's easy for individual concerns to get lost in the crowd. However, during one to one consultations, you have our undivided attention. This focused interaction allows for deeper exploration of your challenges and fosters a more meaningful exchange of ideas and strategies for improvement.

Here's what a student had to say after a recent consultation: “Abbie listened to the challenges I have concerning academic writing and shared learning resources that would help me through this process. She also encouraged me to reach out for further advice and support”

Invest in your academic success - schedule a one to one consultation today and embark on a journey of growth, learning, and achievement. Book your consultation on MyFuture.
