Introduction Summer 2022
Hello! My name is Tamar and I am assisting and attending Dissertation Camp 2022 as both a writing consultant and a fellow graduate student/dissertator. I have been teaching English language courses, college writing, and teacher education courses for the past 20 years. Over the past 10 years I have also worked in four different writing centers (at 3 universities) as a writing consultant.
I am getting my PhD in the College of Education in Language, Literacy and Culture. In my dissertation work I am looking at the lived experiences of graduate student writers (that's us!) and exploring these experiences through narrative inquiry.
I live in Iowa City with my husband, Matt, and my daughters Amaya (9) and Simone (7).
We have four cats: Jojo, Starlight, Cinnamon & Spice.
I look forward to writing with you all for the next 2 weeks!!!
Your research is incredibly interesting - I'm very intrigued by the role that narrative plays in lived experience! I looking forward to hearing more about your work throughout the rest of the camp. Thank you for your work and insights (and motivating cat pics). -Hannah
