Transcribing 

I often think that had it not been for your excellent service I wouldn’t have been able to complete my dissertation in my very tight time frame. Thanks to you, I was able to finish the doctoral program in 3 years, 51 weeks – and just before my 60th birthday, which was a personal goal for me. I continue to refer folks to you and I hope some of them have followed my advice and contacted you. (TK)

Tybee Types does not transcribe the recording exactly (i.e. they don’t include every single “um”, stutter, grunt, etc.). I find this to be advantageous for our study. The text is quite clean and usable. I’m very impressed and pleased. (JCS)

Everyone is just raving over the quality of the transcripts and I plan to let my coworkers know about your services. (MM)

THAT WAS FAST! You guys must have done nothing but type for the last few days! (SGG)

I thank you for your cassette repair and I’m delighted with the turnaround…and I welcome any feedback whatsoever anytime. (BR)

…And I just had a brilliant idea . . . how about I buy a couple hours of your time and visit this summer when all the transcripts are done to get your reflections on them. Besides, I already feel like you’re truly my partner in this. (RM)

Thanks for being there (though it would have been a lot less threatening if you’d been some nameless, faceless, brainless person from somewhere who just types and doesn’t integrate!). (MB)

By the way, the person who did the transcript for the San Diego group did an excellent job. There was a woman in the group who was extremely difficult for all of us to understand and she did a beautiful job of figuring out what she was saying. Please tell her how much I appreciate it. Of course, you did a great job with the Tulsa group as well. I know these must be so difficult to do. (MK) 

Editing

The good news: My dissertation was accepted by UMI for publication. Thank you once again for all of your kind assistance, I very much appreciate it. (NP)

I am very pleased with the edits, suggestions, and comments you have already made on my work, my essays are much clearer and I recognize my own voice! (BBW)

You’re very much on the mark. That may be one of the points that emerge from these transcripts. Thank you for your comments and your work. (JS)

All of your questions and criticism appear to be good ones. This scholarly discourse with you promises to stretch me both as a scholarly writer and researcher. (JJS)
