Dissertation Coaching

Learn Writing Strategies for Your Dissertation...and Future Publications.

You won’t be a doctoral student forever. Defend, Publish & Lead coaches teach you how to break down writing tasks into manageable parts so you can replicate the strategies in future projects. We can also assist with dissertation editing, formatting, revising, and suggesting ways to enact advisor feedback in writing.

Dissertation coaching differs at Defend, Publish & Lead because we are trained in graduate level writing strategies.

Using our expertise in the design and execution of academic writing, we teach you the writing strategies to write compelling discussions of research and effective literature review sections at the sentence, paragraph, and section level so you know not only what to write, but how to write it. 

Our team of 16 writing coaches consists of writing center directors, graduate program directors, and dissertation writing group coaches so we have experience in the writing strategies needed to complete a dissertation successfully by capturing your ideas in focused, coherent writing.

We also offer dissertation defense preparation, defense slide design and review, and assistance with all aspects of the job market, including cover letter/CV writing, interview preparation, and help with academic searches.
