My experience with Lumiere was completely unexpected. The experience was transformative. Lumiere changed the way I perceive myself and the world around me. They provided me with an exceptional experience alongside an outstanding mentor, who was super supportive and positive. I learned a great deal, not only in my area of research but also about being a researcher, a human, and a critical thinker. They excel in being supportive, helpful, and understanding. I encourage all enthusiastic and passionate students to join Lumiere.

Lumiere Program
I really enjoyed the Lumiere Research Program, because it allowed for me to answer questions I have been curious about, and research new ideas for me to explore in the future. In addition, the unwavering support for my program directors, managers, and my mentor, helped me feel supported throughout this process. As this was my first research paper, I am happy and proud of the progress that happened this summer, and I wish to participate again soon.

My mentor
I had a wonderful mentor who gave very clear instructions and small tasks in each session, which made it easier for me to keep up with deadlines. She set up priority tasks and gave reasonable amounts of work.

Lumiere: A Positive, Rewarding Experience
Although the research is self-guided, Lumiere provided excellent resources to assist me with my research journey. The Lumiere staff consistently checked in with me and let me know about supporting materials. Additionally, my mentor, Kathryn Wall, was amazing. We met every week and she was always available to answer any questions. She gave me great feedback. She also helped me to focus my research topic. I am grateful to Lumiere for giving me the confidence to succeed in my research.

Heavy workload, highly rewarding, gateway to future opportunities in academia, suitable for those willing to commit
My experience with Lumiere was extremely educational, and exciting. Having no prior research experience, this entire process of conducting research from scratch with the help of my mentor for my own publication was very exhausting, yet all the more rewarding at the end when I submitted my paper to my target journal. I truly believe that Lumiere provides a great opportunity for students to take their first major steps into the world of academia, allowing them to make a considerable contribution to their respective field of study at a young age. Equipped with various new research skills and tools, I now look forward to further delving into more research projects in the future at university and beyond. I want to highlight the excellent, detailed writing centre feedback provided when requested as it was the key to perfecting my paper. Additionally, my mentor and program manager were very understanding of the busy schedule I was working with, making the process more flexible in accordance with my workload at different times and helping me keep to deadlines to the greatest extent they could. Personally, I didn't experience any difficulties during the entire research process owing to the solid infrastructure set in place by Lumiere to ensure that every student is as supported as they can possibly be throughout. However, it is important to note that the final responsibility of producing a high-quality final publication still lies with the student researcher at the end of the day, regardless of how much support and guidance is provided by the team here at Lumiere, making it vital for students to be committed throughout if they plan on pursuing research in the form of a paper.

Great experience
I've been a research mentor for Lumiere for a couple years. Overall, it's been a great experience. They provide all the necessary resources to be successful. The program is structured, and there are program managers and other management that can help whenever needed. Very rewarding to help students develop research skills and perform research.

Supportive and friendly environment in Lumiere Education
Lumiere Education provided me a good opportunity to cooperate with professor and a chance to write and publish my first research paper. My professor is supportive and kindly, he guide me to a new area that I haven’t research before, it helps me to gain a lot of interesting knowledge. Additionally, my program manager and publication strategist both friendly and understanding, their encouragement and suggestion are a big motivation to me. Finally, the writing center of Lumiere Education also provide me crucial advice for a better and structured writing, which help me to successfully published my final research paper. Therefore overall experience was fantastic, despite the time given for us may be a little bit short for me.

Authentic Research served under One Platform
Throughout the program, Lumiere extremely accommodating, realizing that besides research we were students. This program is an experience unable to be gained anywhere else, the mentors are extremely qualified, and if I were given the choice, I will do it all over again.
