POWER Consultants

Who We Are

We are a group of graduate students and faculty members who have gone through the POWER training process. We come from different backgrounds and writing experiences, but we have one thing in common:

We believe anyone can learn to write academically given the right tools and applying those to their own writing development. We also believe in our ability to continually develop and improve our writing.
