Academic coaching
Academic projects – and academic careers – rarely follow a straight path. Many students, doctoral candidates, and researchers experience periods of uncertainty, feeling overwhelmed, or a lack of direction. Drawing on my many years of experience in research, teaching, and academic peer review, I help people successfully navigate academic, methodological, and strategic challenges. My academic coaching offers personalized guidance, constructive feedback, and practical support on the path to successfully completing a degree, earning a Ph.D., or completing a research project.
Throughout my academic career, I have supervised and evaluated more than 250 bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral theses on a wide range of topics in the social sciences. As a result, I have many years of experience with the challenges faced by undergraduate and graduate students, and I can provide targeted support in developing research questions, structuring academic papers, selecting research methods, and academic writing.
