Did you know our Studio also advises and mentors
European bachelor's and master's students with their thesis? This rewarding work
with students also informs our advice
to coordinators of courses and degrees at university. In other words:
it helps us to better understand our clients. This work also ensures we stay in tune with the existing exit goals of
academic degrees.
Insider view
This work gives us a privileged insider view of what is happening across a spectrum of universities in terms of curricula and teaching design. By witnessing the reflection of strengths and weaknesses of academic teaching staff, we can better understand their actual problems.
We work with students both at university and at universities of applied science. As stated in our Manifesto, we see a continuum between capacity development of students, and training of professionals at universities of applied science. Making science actionable, and infusing practice with research.
Bespoke approach
The trajectory with a student is always a tailor-made learning journey. This is because every student and every institutional setting is unique.
Enriching new generations
Each new generation of students brings richness to our advisory work through our dialogues and interactions about their research findings and written output, and their feedback on our approaches.
We appreciate the opportunity to impact a new generation of future leaders in this intensive and personal period of their studies.
A thesis trajectory can change young people’s lives and give them clarity of purpose about who they are and what they love to do.
Commercial and ideological
The work also demonstrates our agility to straddle the ideological process of helping a new generation to graduate within the high-quality criteria of education and the commercial side of meeting client deliverables - the entrepreneurial bureaus. We are able to adapt to a diversity of clients, offer a healthy commercial approach, deal with the pressure of deadlines and champion a solution-oriented approach.
What we learn forms an organic loop back into our advice work.
We currently work with the following bureaus:
1. Bijleshuis.Be (Gent, Belgium)
2. Scriptum (Oost-Souburg, The Netherlands)
3. Bureau scriptiehulp (Hilversum, The Netherlands)

“Thank you - truly! I don’t regret a single minute of your supervision! I would have never made it for my master degree otherwise!”
Master student (f) European and International Governance, Vrije Universiteit Brussel (Belgium).
“A lot depended on this for me, since I failed my submitted thesis that had received a heavy insufficient grade. I realised the scale of the problem I had – so much needed to happen in a brief period of time until the new deadline, and the price of the thesis supervision by Tikvah was worth it for me completely, as it made perfect sense. For every hour I bought, I got so much value: this goes over and beyond thesis support you usually get out there, it goes from structure in the text, to how to plan my time optimally, and from content dialogues to laughter and more.
Perhaps the most helpful aspect of this trajectory with Tikvah, was how she made sense for me out of the immense amount of input I received from my institution of what was expected of me and of the end product - in the thesis guidelines, separate documents, workshops, the oral feedback over time from teachers and commissions on my failed product etc. It was a mess for me, I had no idea where to start even. Tikvah ensured I was crystal clear on what my institute would grade me on, and in case of doubt we cross checked with my teacher at the institute. Her way of constantly bringing it all together in 1 place only, was absolute gold for me. In the end, I received a green light, and I couldn’t feel more relieved, as now I can complete my 4 years degree and am a certified professional. In the same situation, with so much depending on it, I would have made the same investment to graduate – or even more, whatever was needed. This was a most pleasant collaboration.”

PhD candidates:
“You [Tikvah] are able to learn/absorb the subject that I’m trying to produce, and you transform it to a methodological angle, and organise it is such a way that it directs me, and I can do things [in my course] in a more effective and efficient way”.
