Lara's story

"She was there every step of the way."

I am not sure I could have completed my thesis without Lani's support. From the very beginning and throughout the entire process, she was there every step of the way, offering thoughtful guidance, structured feedback, and reassurance when it was most needed. Her academic expertise is exceptional, and her advice consistently elevated the quality, clarity, and rigor of my work.

What truly sets Lani apart is her ability to combine deep subject-matter knowledge with a genuine commitment to her students' success. She challenged my thinking in the best possible way, helping me sharpen my arguments and strengthen my methodology, while always remaining encouraging and constructive. More than anything, Lani is a wonderful person who is genuinely delightful to spend time with. Her warmth, positivity, and sincere investment in her students made the entire experience not only successful but truly enjoyable.

I could not recommend Lani more highly. Any student would be fortunate to have her guidance.

"Far exceeded my expectations..."

As a distance-learning MSc student, navigating the dissertation journey was initially overwhelming until I discovered GradCoach on YouTube. While their free vlogs are already incredibly helpful, I chose to opt for their paid coaching services as I was determined to excel in my dissertation.

From the start, the platform offered structured guidance, useful templates, and detailed resources that helped me at every stage of the research process. But what truly set GradCoach apart was the coaching support — whose clarity, patience, and insightful feedback consistently elevated the quality of my work. Their guidance was instrumental in shaping my literature review, refining my methodology, and structuring my findings according to academic best practices.

The quality of support I received far exceeded my expectations, and it helped me secure a Distinction grade for my dissertation, scoring 76% — a result I'm truly proud of. GradCoach is not just a coaching service, it's a confidence-building companion for anyone undertaking independent academic research.

I wholeheartedly recommend it to any student seeking clarity, structure, and support in their research journey.

"The man is a legend!"

Doctor E! What can I say. The man is a legend. He can translate academia into English, calm down the panic and help with structure. All while not being as dry as a packet of stale biscuits! Thanks to him I have passed my MSc dissertation first time — after failing the previous 3 modules due to my lack of writing ability. I am utterly delighted. For anyone who is wondering if this is a service you need, the answer is unequivocally yes.

"I wound up landing a distinction!"

Grad Coach absolutely saved me during the dissertation process. Going back to university for a master's degree 30 years after undergrad is not for the faint of heart, much less in another country where the writing and grading standards are different.

Coach Ethar really helped me develop a clear strategy for organising my research, references and paper and gave me great feedback on what to prioritise and what to cut. His understanding of what academic markers want to see is so helpful. I would have been way off the mark without his insights. He also let me just vent when I was struggling and made me laugh, which was much needed during a really challenging process.

I wound up landing a distinction on my paper thanks to his amazing support. If you are struggling with academic writing in any way, shape, or form, reach out to this company ASAP — they are a Godsend!

"First Class Honours on my dissertation"

It's hard to put into words how grateful I am for Grad Coach and Dr. Kerryn Warren. When I started writing my dissertation, I felt completely lost after my supervisors informed me they could no longer dedicate time to my project. As this was my first time tackling a project of this scale, I was directionless and unsure of how to proceed.

From our initial consultation, Dr. Warren was absolutely incredible. She transformed my feeling of being completely overwhelmed into a clear, executable guide. The feedback she provided was explained thoroughly, helping me understand not just what to do, but why. Dr. Warren gave me the support, knowledge, and skills that were instrumental in helping me achieve First Class Honours on my dissertation. Everything I learned will be invaluable throughout my research journey.

I cannot recommend her and Grad Coach enough.

"I'm not just getting through the work. I'm actually understanding the material and building new skills."

This was my very first time reaching out for help, and honestly, I'm so glad I took that step and gave myself a shot.

Tara was incredible. She really took the time to help me break down exactly what my professor was asking for and made everything feel so much less overwhelming. Because of her guidance, I'm not just getting through the work, I'm actually understanding the material and building new skills I didn't have before. I can't even explain how much that means to me. I truly couldn't be happier, and I'm beyond grateful.

Thank you, Tara, for making such a difference.

Dissertation Coaching

Is the consultation really free?

Yes.

The purpose of the initial consultation is for us to assess your specific situation and explain how we can help you.

There is no cost and no obligation to proceed beyond the consultation. However, we strongly recommend that you review our pricing before booking a consultation.

Is this service allowed by universities?

Yes. Many universities refer students to us and 400+ institutions use our content in their curriculum.

It’s important to understand that we do not write for you. While there are organisations that will cross this ethical boundary, we do not engage in any activity which may be considered academic misconduct.

Will my work be treated confidentially?

Yes.

Your work will be treated as confidential and will not be shared with any third parties, nor published anywhere. We can sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) if you wish.

How much does Private Coaching cost?

You can learn about our pricing and package options here.

Can you write my dissertation/thesis for me?

No – all writing must be your own. We can hold your hand throughout the research process, but we cannot write for you as that would constitute academic misconduct.

WARNING – If you are considering any academic writing service, be aware that using such services can lead to expulsion or even revocation of your degree years after graduation. Many websites offering such services provide extremely low-quality work that is unlikely to pass, and some websites are outright scams preying on desperate students.
