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.

The Grad Coach difference
On-Demand Access
Getting help is simple. Book a live session, message your coach or send your results chapter for an in-depth review. We're here when you need us.
Insider Advantage
Every coach holds a doctoral-level degree, and many have supervised dissertations themselves, so they know what examiners look for in a rock-solid results chapter.
Submission-Ready Support
We make sure your results are correct, clearly reported and tied to your research questions. No guesswork, no panic. You submit your work with confidence.
You Stay the Author
We guide; we don't write. The interpretation and every word of your results chapter are yours, which is why 500+ universities refer students to us for ethical support.
What students want to know
Here are some of the most common questions we receive about statistics support. If yours isn't here, book a free, no-pressure consultation.
How much does statistics help cost?
The initial consultation is completely free. If you decide to work with us, coaching is priced on a time basis. Running tests for you is quoted once we've seen your data and what you need.
Can you run the statistical tests for me?
Yes, if your university allows this kind of support. We run the tests and give you the full output. You then interpret it and write it up yourself, and we can coach you through that if you'd like.
Is statistics help allowed?
Coaching is like working with a statistics tutor: you do the analysis and we guide you. Having someone run the tests for you is allowed at some universities but not all, so check your handbook or ask your advisor or supervisor first.
Either way, we never interpret or write up your results for you.
Can you write my results chapter for me?
No. All writing has to be your own. We'll guide you through every step of your analysis and give you detailed feedback, but writing it for you would be academic misconduct.
What actually happens in a coaching session?
You meet your coach one-on-one on a video call and work through whatever you're stuck on, with your data or output on screen. Between sessions, you can send chapters for detailed written feedback or ask quick questions by email.
I'm not a numbers person. Can you help?
Absolutely. You don't need to be a statistician to write a strong results chapter. We explain each step in plain English, at your pace.
Will my coach know statistics?
Yes. Every one of our coaches is doctoral-qualified and can help with statistics, from choosing your tests to reporting your results. For advanced modeling, such as SEM or multilevel models, we'll match you with a coach who specializes in it.
Which software do you support?
Most often SPSS, R and Excel. If you're using something else, ask us in a free consultation and we'll tell you honestly whether we can help.
Can you help with qualitative data too?
Yes. Our data analysis help covers thematic, content, narrative and discourse analysis, and our qualitative coding service can take care of the first round of coding for you.
Will my work be kept confidential?
Yes. Your work and your data are treated as confidential and never shared or published. We're happy to sign a non-disclosure agreement if you'd like one.
What our clients say
We've worked 1:1 with 10,000+ students. Here's what some of them have to say:
“I went from 'no idea' to 'I've got this'”
“Grad Coach turned stress into structure.”
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 honestly thought this would be the one big failure of my life.”
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.
“With Grad Coach, I finally felt that I could complete my PhD.”
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!
