Students must visit my office during office hours to discuss their essays. During these visits, students should have questions in mind to ask me regarding their draft essays. Questions concerning organization, content, thesis, vocabulary and grammar are expected; however, any question about the writing process and experience is welcomed. If you have a scheduling conflict, I can try to make an appointment for another time.
