Here’s what colleagues and other professionals have had to say about Sudakshina’s work and performance:-
Jonathan Davidson, Vice Principal, The London College, UCK:-
“Miss Mukherjee has shown dedication to her students and a completely professional approach to her teaching.”
Jethro Marsh, former editor for www.fenews.co.uk:
“During the time that I worked with Sudakshina, I have found her to be a consummate professional, scrupulously punctual and extremely able. She is reliable and dedicated, and her writing and editing skills remain unsurpassed in my experience. Through her work as one of the feature journalists for FE News she researched and prepared articles from across the Further Education sector. She was proactive in pursuing, setting up and conducting interviews with key stakeholders. Her confident manner and her interview technique enabled her to gain exclusive information which she was adept at assessing and analysing.
She is extremely flexible in her approach whilst maintaining scrupulously high standards, and is comfortable meeting tight deadlines for tasks set whilst maintaining her high standards. She has been a model of excellence in her writing style, her research and application of journalistic techniques, and has indeed been held up as an example to other new journalists by myself on occasion! Her copy writing and research skills are of the highest order, and enable her to provide excellently researched and comprehensive articles on a variety of subjects.
She is honest, sincere and trustworthy, which are traits that one does not always encounter and are valued highly when found in a colleague.”
Anila Venkaria, former Content Editor, www.emma.tv :-
“Sudakshina is a friendly and reliable individual. A confident character who contributed to our magazine and made it what it is today. As a writer for our Global Village section there was a great amount of research that had to go into the articles she wrote. Despite this, Sudakshina never missed a deadline and was always very keen in planning her next article.
Sudakshina’s responsibilities included monitoring our website www.emma.tv to check for gaps in subjects we didn’t have, for example in the Global Village section, if Sudakshina saw a country that wasn’t included, or a country that she thought should have been included, she would ask my permission to write about it.
She would then research countries in her own spare time and put together an extensive portfolio of that country. Sudakshina wrote the majority of the Global Village section herself!
Sudakshina had to liaise very closely with the editorial team. She did this very successfully despite being an external writer, which always makes it harder to gain a rapport with the internal team.
A very conscientious individual, who would be a blessing for any future employer.”
Samia Rahman, former Deputy Editor, emel magazine:
“Sudakshina is a diligent and highly conscientious worker who has been a pleasure to work with. She has displayed initiative and perseverance while writing an article about Internet safety and has been helpful and enthusiastic throughout her placement.”
Michael Flannery, Assistant Editor (Features),Voices,a weekly supplement for Indian youngsters, (The Statesman newspaper), Kolkata, India:-
“Sudakshina Mukherjee from St Joseph and Mary’s School has been a Voices Coordinator from April 2001. She has been an enthusiastic, sincere and hard-working member of the Voices family and will be an asset to the institution she joins.”
