  • Wudan taught an introductory fact-checking webinar for my online professional development platform, Training for Translators. I was impressed with her preparation, her knowledge of the topic, and how she engaged the participants in fact-checking exercises during the presentation. Wudan's presentation style is very precise but also conversational; the participants really enjoyed the session and I would highly recommend Wudan as a presenter on topics related to fact-checking! She also asked great questions ahead of time to make sure the presentation was tailored to this particular audience and their work.

  • As a first-time book author, I turned to Factual for a consulting session on the fact-checking process. Wudan's advice was immensely useful, especially in helping me think through questions of how to select fact-checkers and how to craft a good pricing plan that fit within my budget. With Wudan's advice, I'm moving forward with fact-checking my book with a lot more confidence!

  • Wudan presented a fantastic overview of fact-checking for science writers to members of the Northern California Science Writers Association. Her presentation was clear, engaging, and chock-full of valuable information. Wudan is also incredibly kind and easy to work with.
