arrangement that will provide your student services without creating
financial strain.

Dissertation coaching consists of one-on-one work to strengthen the effort you
have already put in. Draw out the significance of your research by honing in on
the implications, connections, and recommendations that stem from your
findings. Together, we will break past a surface-level review of your study to
generate the greatest impact possible. Dissertation coaching can also focus on
general writing mechanics, clarity of message, and/or consistency of voice.
