Dear all,
Hello! I’m new in post and am trying to
establish a clear policy around the issue of proof-reading essays. Although I
am clear that this is not a service I am going to offer, some students seem to
expect that I will do so. Does anyone have a clear policy that works in
managing student expectations around this issue, while still encouraging them
to seek support for problems with spelling, punctuation and grammar? I had
wondered about offering to look at around 500 words of text, but not whole
essays. Also, I am unclear about whether it is appropriate to offer a more
comprehensive service for students with English as an additional language –
does anyone have any advice on this?
Many thanks,
Hazel
