Learning Advisor - Mātanga Ako - Postgraduate 
National Centre for Teaching and Learning

Kia ora! I'm officially a postgrad advisor, but please get in touch no matter your level, for anything from study skills to academic writing advice.

Please note: 
We are not a proofreading service, and are not experts in your particular field - we can give advice on things like structure, style, and 'does it make sense to an outside reader?'.

For on-campus sessions, please bring your work along printed - and note that if it's long, we might just look at a few key chunks of it together. 

For online sessions, I often work in a room without a camera - so I'm the one to talk to if you're camera-shy =)
