For a specific paper consult - usually applying to high school or college students - I will need to meet with the student first and have a good understanding of the assignment.

​

This could be a consult to begin writing a paper, in which I will help the student begin to plan and organize thoughts for the draft.

​

Or this could be a consult in which a draft has already been written and the writer is in need of an edit or proof read.  For this particular type of consult a second meeting is optional to discuss corrections or paper issues.

​

I do not make the corrections myself but use standard proofreading symbols.
