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.

Loved by thousands.
“I honestly thought this would be the one big failure of my life.”
“Grad Coach turned stress into structure.”
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!

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.
“If you're stuck, Grad Coach is your way forward.”
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.

15-minute chat. No cost. No pressure.
Still have questions?
Will it actually apply to my research?
No generic advice. Every session is based on your specific topic, your university's requirements, and your current stage, so the guidance you get is always relevant and actionable.
Am I too far along (or not far enough) to start?
Whether you're just getting started or racing to finish your final chapters, we meet you where you are. There's no wrong time to get support.
What if I'm not ready to commit?
The consultation is completely free. You'll get clear next steps and can decide from there. No commitment required.
Is the initial consultation really free?
Yes. There's no cost and no obligation to continue afterward. It's a chance for us to understand your situation and explain how we can help.
Is coaching allowed by universities?
Yes. Many universities refer students to us directly, and hundreds of institutions use our content in their own curricula. It's also important to understand that we do not write for you: while some organizations cross that ethical line, we never take part in anything that could be considered academic misconduct.
Will my work be kept confidential?
Yes. Your work is treated as confidential and never shared with anyone else or published anywhere. We're happy to sign a non-disclosure agreement if you'd like one.
How much does coaching cost?
It depends on how many hours of support you need.
Can you write my dissertation or thesis for me?
No. All writing has to be your own. We can guide you through the research process and give you detailed feedback, but writing it for you would be academic misconduct. Be careful with any service that offers to write your dissertation: using one can put your degree at risk, sometimes years after you've graduated, and a lot of these services do low-quality work or are outright scams.
