5. Office Hours/Student Hours

 I visited Professor Lee during her office hours because I wanted to revise my Paper 3. I was confused about her comment on my thesis. I didn’t realize that my paper focused more on the benefits of immigration for immigrants, but the prompt asked us to write about the benefits for the U.S. Professor Lee explained that clearly and helped me understand the difference. She suggested that I change my thesis to focus on immigration as a continuation of the American Dream. This would make my paper more focused on how immigration helps the U.S. This meeting helped me see my mistake and gave me a clear direction to revise my paper.
