Here are the top three reasons students tell me they value me as their dissertation consultant.

Since I started Read Write Perfect, LLC, four years ago, I've assisted an average of 10 students per year in successfully completing their dissertations. The personalized support I provide has been crucial to this achievement. As a BIPOC, First-Gen dissertation coach who has spent years in academia, I know that without the right support, progress on your Masters degree can feel slow, and the journey can seem lonely.

The availability of such dissertation support was one the highlights of my experience as a postgraduate student at the University of Wales, and I credit it with a lot of my success as an academic. That's why I founded Read Write Perfect, LLC - to provide dissertation help for women like us, who lead real lives and face real challenges.

1

I am a real professor with genuine higher education experience

I earned my PhD in 2009 from the University of Wales, and since then I have worked in academia as a professor and trained as a qualified teacher (check out my certificates below). As well as publishing books and articles in my own field (children’s literature), I have served as an editor and reviewer for a number of peer-reviewed publications. In the past year, I have helped more than 20 Masters and PhD students successfully complete their degrees--and I can help you, too.

2

I’m not a big company.

I don’t know about you, but I don’t really like crowds. When you work with me, you work with ME – not a big group of coaches. You always know exactly who you’ll be seeing in a session, and who will be reviewing your work – because it will be me.

3

I make your well-being as well as your success a priority.

There is too much toxic pressure, competition, and burnout in academia already – I refuse to add to it. Instead, I will look out for your overall wellbeing as well as just your completion deadline – even when you don’t remember to. I'll remind you to take breaks, suggest self-care strategies, cheerlead for you at every stage, and listen when you need to have a rant or vent some frustration. Think of me as your "dissertation doula"!
