CENTRE FOR SCHOLARLY COMMUNICATION
Through the CSC, Naeem provides one-on-one consultations to graduate and post-doctoral researchers at UBC Okanagan who are writing journal articles, grant proposals, theses, and dissertations or who want to practice their academic and conversational English skills.
Naeem helps writers build clarity and momentum by approaching writing as a processual and open act where ideas take shape through engagement and revision. He views writing as an invitation to curiosity, experimentation, and reflection. Naeem believes that a common misconception about academic writing is that you have to read a lot before you can start writing.
“In reality, thinking often happens through writing. It’s an active, sometimes messy process of discovery.”
