Admin and academic help, flexible

Academic support worker wanted

Tanaz is a woman in central Brighton seeking a support worker to help her submit her project proposal to universities. She is an overseas student with a First Class Master’s Degree in International Relations. Tanaz has multiple mental health conditions that make the administrative side of academic life, such as managing multiple deadlines and corresponding with university tutors and staff members, more challenging for her. She is therefore seeking an academic assistant to help her untangle the process of submitting her proposal to universities and provide her with regular check-ins to keep her studies on track.

Tan has been diagnosed with Asperger’s and speaks English as a second language, so it’s essential for an assistant to be patient with her when it comes to communication and to communicate with her as clearly as possible. However, Tan is a keen and committed student eager to further her learning with the help of a compassionate support network.

Help is needed in the following areas:
Admin tasks eg. contacting university staff members and supervisors, reading through paperwork
Proof reading
Helping to reword written information
Signposting to any relevant services and organisations
Help structuring and planning essays
Organising calendar to manage deadlines
