Working at the CDVL and specifically on our department website has helped me shape the career path I’d like to pursue post-grad. I have decided to pursue a Master’s degree in UX design, heavily inspired by the fact that I’ve been designing and building web pages according to our visions. I appreciate the support everyone has given me during my time here and thank the CDVL for giving me the opportunity to achieve my goals.

My time working at the Center for Writing and Speaking taught me a lot about professionalism, especially with our joint venture with the Career Peers. I benefited from having the Career Peers in the office, and helpful staff trainings taught me about framing tutor experiences and effective communication. I also got a lot of exposure to faculty and other people, acquired experience training others, learned how to effectively give advice and developed, overall, increased self-awareness.

The learning assistant was very helpful with questions I had about Introduction to Chemistry. This was my second time at the RCMS, and I believe it was helpful. I will be returning for more help in the future!

My CDVL Tutor was fantastic!! She was able to help me work through a program that I was unfamiliar with, and she really helped me in terms of design. I wasn't that confident in using Adobe Products, but I feel much more capable. I'm planning on making another appointment with her in the future to continue working on the design of my project.

My CWS tutor was extremely kind, welcoming, and easy to talk to. I especially appreciate that after most of my answers, she would highlight on or two things I said, tell me what she found insightful about them, and add some perspectives of her own to the conversation' that made me feel like she was really interesting and invested in the conversation, which made me feel more comfortable and confident with my own answers!

The CDVL tutor I met with helped with taking my professional photos in the maker space (I wanted to include yarn in it). I had a vision and she executed it perfectly!

My Career Peer gave me great advice on how best to improve my resume. She said it was actually a good resume, which is great because I thought it was so bad! She explained the difference between a resume, master resume, and CV to me, and now I feel very ready to work on all three this summer.

My Career Peer was awesome! They had looked up information about the position I was applying for upon my arrival and were able to provide me with an idea of what the interview questions might look like. They also provided me with helpful resources, specifically Big Interview under ASC, so that I could continue preparing for my interview on my own. I actually had my interview today, and it went super well, and I credit Caroline as being a lot of the reason why I felt so prepared!

Despite no prior knowledge of my assignment, my CWS tutor was able to give me helpful insight on what I could change or improve upon to make my essay stronger. She also boosted my confidence in writing, which of course, was encouraging because I wrote my draft with a lot of uncertainty.
