Dissertation and Thesis Consulting

The end of the semester is a time when everything in a student’s life comes crashing down upon him/her. Though they have spent hours-on-end in the library and hours doing research, students find themselves failing to make sense of all of the research and information that they have learned, gathered, studied and accumulated. The time has come for them to write their dissertation, and yet, they have no idea where to even begin writing their dissertation, let alone how to write the entire thing! Thus, students are left frustrated and worried because they face what seems to be an insurmountable task. This, however, is where the thesis and dissertation consultants step in to rescue these traumatized students.

Writing a thesis or a dissertation is a very complex task. A thesis or dissertation is very complicated in and of itself, and it gets even more problematic when students do not get to see or meet with their advisors. Students get stuck, and progress is stagnant because students have no one who can provide solutions to their questions. It gets even more confusing for the students who are “first timers” and need thorough guidance with their dissertation work. These “first timers” do not know anything about the problems that are usually encountered during the course of writing a dissertation or thesis. Along with the dissertation, there is also a dissertation proposal that needs to be submitted before the actual writing of the dissertation can begin. Writing a dissertation proposal requires the student to first decide his/her topic, which again, is extremely difficult to do without proper guidance and support. However, answers to all of these traumatic queries lie hidden in thesis and dissertation consultants. It is important to note that the hiring of a thesis and dissertation consultant does not mean that the consultant is doing the students’ work, or replacing the professors for that matter. In fact thesis and dissertation consultants are professionally trained people, who are simply providing a helping hand to students in an organized manner.

Most graduate and doctoral students are required to submit a dissertation or thesis before the completion of the term. If they fail to do so, they do not get their degree. When a student writes a thesis or a dissertation, it shows both his/her command over the subject and whether or not his/her understanding of the subject produces results that contribute to the knowledge of the subject. Clearly this is no easy feat, for adding to a subject that is already well studied and rich in information is very difficult. Because it is so difficult, writing a thesis can indeed be very traumatic! In these traumatic times, however, students could use an intelligent and wise hand. The answer again lies in thesis and dissertation consultants. Thesis and dissertation consultants are friendly guides who can rescue students from their confusing turmoil as thesis and dissertation consultants provide friendly and practical advice. Thesis and dissertation consultants listen to a student’s queries and answers his/her questions in a very clear and patient manner. Thesis and dissertation consultants also help the student choose interesting topics for his/her proposal. Then they help him/her write a dissertation proposal. They also suggest ideas as to how to convert the student’s selected topic into useful research projects. Thesis and dissertation consultants help students in organizing their literary data. They also help them in explaining the statistical matters in simple English. Thesis and dissertation consultants can also help the student by providing help in deciding the methodology of the student’s research. Further, they help in planning the student’s surveys and tests. The surveys or tests designed by the students answer the research question; therefore, it is very important to carry out these tests and the research in a proper manner. Thesis and dissertation consultants, therefore, advise students in the methods of study and help students with all kinds of research related topics. One example is thesis and dissertation consultants helping the student decide the appropriate number of subjects for carrying out analysis. Additionally, thesis and dissertation consultants provide help in interpreting the surveys and writing down the results. They review the entirety of the results and tally them with the research question, surveys and then the conclusion. This can be very time consuming. However, hiring thesis and dissertation consultants can help students finish their thesis and dissertation in the prescribed time period. Also, the advice that they provide as they help the student is always given in a very updated and organized manner. Clearly then, thesis and dissertation consultants help students with time management as many students have other obligations to fulfill.

While doing their thesis and dissertations with the consultants, students should never forget to be open and professional with the thesis and dissertation consultants. This means that students should communicate with their thesis and dissertation consultants as a lack of communication could lower the quality of the student’s thesis.

In short, it is very clear that thesis and dissertation consultants are invaluable to students. The hiring of a thesis and dissertation consultant at the beginning can save the student much time as they can avoid unnecessary delays brought about by students simply not knowing how or where to start. These delays, though common, usually result in students not having enough quality time to put into their dissertations. Thesis and dissertation consultants are available to help with all of this as they will no-doubt ensure that students are always moving in the right direction. They are an extremely valuable asset to students.

Thesis and Dissertation Consultants

“Sometimes a scream is better than a thesis.”

James Frank Dobie

The quote above describes how almost every student is likely to feel at the end of every tiring semester. They studied and researched and went through the many hardships required in today’s ever-competitive world. Graduate school is “crunch time,” where no matter how much they try to meet their goals, Murphy’s Law still operates. Due to tight deadlines and an abundance of work to worry about, students frequently do not have the slightest idea as to how to put things into perspective. They might have all the knowledge and skills needed, yet many students fail to even decide on a topic for a dissertation, let alone begin to write the entire dissertation.

Theses and dissertations can sometimes be very complicated, and let’s face it- students do not always have access to their advisors all the time. Students need a guiding hand, such as a thesis and dissertation consultant, to help address all sorts of problems that might be encountered during the course of writing a thesis or dissertation. A large number of students are preparing a thesis for the first time, and they absolutely have no idea as to how to start. All of these problems and more can be addressed by seeking the services of thesis and dissertation consultants. Thesis and dissertation consultants are professionally-trained individuals who can help students in an organized manner, which does not at all mean that thesis and dissertation consultants are meant to replace the advisor or the professor. Practically speaking, thesis and dissertation consultants are there to provide a helping hand.

The completion of a dissertation demonstrates the ability to address a major intellectual problem, and the results constitute a contribution to knowledge in the field. Thesis and dissertation consultants can be very beneficial in the hour of need. Thesis and dissertation consultants can provide friendly and relaxed consultations and address the students’ questions at length. They can also help students choose an interesting and worthy topic. Thesis and dissertation consultants can also help students learn how to turn the selected topic into a sustainable research project. Consultants can also help in terms of research and organizing students’ literature reviews, statistics (a subject increasingly applicable to non-statistical studies) and writing and proofreading the final submission. Thesis and dissertation consultants can further help with advising on base level problems, such as sample size selection, suitable statistical techniques, formats for citation, along with topics such as the right method for conducting a regression analysis, how to deal with missing values and much more. Consultants can also help in interpreting results and formulating meaningful conclusions based on one’s findings. Finally, thesis and dissertation consultants can also help in preparing for the final oral defense.

Another benefit of thesis and dissertation consultants is that they can help reduce a students’ workload dramatically, particularly for the students or candidates who have very little time due to their commitments to work. In addition, for those who are not very good with managing time or schedules, thesis and dissertation consultants can be a God-send.

Students should always remember that they should keep a strong team dynamic while working on the project with the consultant. A lack of coordination and cooperation can lead to friction in the course of research and would ultimately affect the quality of the project. Thesis and dissertation consultants are, or should be, like mentors or assistant faculty whom students can access at any point of time. All in all, in order to avoid unnecessary tensions and confusion, one should hire a thesis and dissertation consultant so that they can go start their research on the path for a superior grade.

Dissertation Statistics Tutoring

At the end of every semester, almost every student has to complete a dissertation in order to get his or her degree. Though the student has studied the entire semester and has done his/her own research work, he/she is frequently so overburdened and overwhelmed at the end of the semester, that the student fails to make sense of all he/she has studied, learned and researched. In other words, by the end of the semester, many students are so burnt-out that they are unable to truly focus on their dissertation. Additionally, many students are “first timers” when it comes to writing a thesis or dissertation and they frequently have absolutely no idea as to how to go about the research process.

Writing a dissertation is a complex task in and of itself, particularly when it comes to statistical analysis. Frequently, even non-statistics related dissertations involve statistical analysis. For a non-statistician, such work can be not only intimidating, but it can also be impossible to complete without help. Statistics involves the “magic of numbers,” and in order for one to produce, explain and defend such “magic,” a student must be a master of numbers—for statistics is not really magic; rather, it is the science, collection and analysis of numbers that can often seem like magic because of its complexity. Thus, because of its complexity and difficulty, the subject is quiet nerve-racking, especially if the student has improper, little or no guidance. As students do not have access to their teachers at all times, they need someone else for step-by-step guidance. The pains and frustrations that students go through during dissertation research are endless. Further, it can be even more derailing and discouraging when professors keep rejecting students’ dissertations due to insufficient data, inadequate research, ineffective writing style, or incorrect formatting and compilation. Such rejections from professors can ultimately make students miss their deadlines. This, however, is where the dissertation statistics tutoring can be of great help!

Dissertation statistics tutoring can go a long way in helping students develop the research project or experiment, select methodologies, interpret results and write the dissertation. At the very least, dissertation statistics tutoring can be extremely useful in helping students with statistical analysis for non-statistical academic programs. Statistics is becoming pervasive in nearly every field of research and study. For instance, medical science, clinical research, market research or marketing, financial services and many other industry verticals use statistics in developing new and more efficient methods of operations.

For a student in a non-statistics discipline, dissertation statistics tutoring can be invaluable because without proper statistical analysis, a student’s dissertation can be rendered invalid or inaccurate. Dissertation statistics tutoring can help answer students’ doubts regarding many statistics topics, including Decision Theory, Statistical Inference, Regression Analysis, Multivariate Analysis, Probability, Signal Processing and Econometrics. However difficult or complex the problem or topic may be, dissertation statistics tutoring can make it easy, accessible and understandable for students. Dissertation statistics tutoring gives regular feedback on students’ experiments and research. Therefore, the dissertation statistics tutor continually makes sure that the students are moving on the right track.

A dissertation is required for all graduate and doctoral students. The timely completion of a student’s dissertation demonstrates his/her aptitude in a field of study and the results constitute a contribution to knowledge in the field. Dissertation statistics tutoring services are usually provided by experts who have knowledgeable insight within a field of study, particularly on the topics that every student comes across while writing the dissertation. Among other things, dissertation statistics tutoring helps in editing the actual writing of the dissertation. They also oversee and give guidance on the methods used to support conclusions and inferences to ensure that students come up with accurate and plausible results. The best thing about dissertation statistics tutoring is that they take even the most minute details of research into consideration and they help the client achieve an error free diagnosis and conclusion.

Often students struggle as they have many time restraints. Some students are the sole bread earners of their family and consequently have no time to take care of the actual research or writing. Alternatively, some students may be poor time managers and may not be equipped to finish the dissertation in time. Dissertation statistics tutoring can help these time-strapped students by providing much needed guidance and support. With guidance, students will find it easier to write a solid thesis and create meaningful analysis.

Because dissertation statistics tutors can be an invaluable help to students who are writing their dissertations, it is very important that students find the right tutor. Part of this selection process involves hiring a qualified and professional tutor. Students are well advised to discuss new ideas and findings with the tutor in order to obtain the tutor’s valuable feedback. Additionally, it is very important that dissertation statistics tutors who are working with students discuss and answer all questions that the student has. They must also be sure that both the tutor and the student are on the same wavelength. This will greatly improve the overall quality of the dissertation.

Dissertation Consultant


Dissertations can sometimes be both very complicated and very difficult to write alone. Though students may need help selecting a dissertation topic, conducting research, writing the dissertation, or analyzing the actual data, students may not always have access to teachers for much-needed assistance. A large number of students who prepare dissertations for the first time often require just as much help gathering research materials as they do writing up the results. For many of these “first-timers,” a dissertation becomes a headache rather than a valuable academic experience. A dissertation consultant, however, can be the answer to many students’ prayers.

A dissertation consultant is a professionally trained individual who provides useful direction to students. This dissertation consultant is trained in selecting topics for dissertations, setting up experiments, designing research methodology and writing up the actual dissertation. Additionally, the dissertation consultant can proofread the dissertation and can provide ad-hoc guidance for students when they need a lot more time than their guide can provide. This does not necessarily mean that the dissertation consultant is replacing the guide at the college. Rather, the dissertation consultant is acting as a supplement to the college guide.

There is a popular notion that a dissertation consultant writes papers for students. The truth, however, is that a good dissertation consultant provides writing guidance and advice to the students. In addition, the dissertation consultant can assist with proofreading or “cleaning-up” the dissertation to make it look more professional. Often, a student will write a decent term paper, but when the student must write the results of a statistical experiment, their write-up is less than adequate and it certainly does not look professional.

In addition to offering writing assistance, a dissertation consultant can help research the topic in depth and he/she can provide support for the task of research. For example, many students may not be very good at navigating complex research databases. Or, students might not be familiar with the different citation formats. Not only can a dissertation consultant provide help on citation formats and other aspects of the writing, he or she can also help selecting the right format and template.

Dissertation consultants also enable students to manage their time more effectively because a lot of students have to juggle with the demands of family obligations or a full time job while attending classes and writing their dissertations. A dissertation consultant helps the students set reasonable writing schedules and goals that can go a long way in making room for the students’ non-student life demands, which are often more pressing.

The advantages of hiring an expert dissertation consultant are many. First, the student will not need to worry about what topic will work best for his/her program of study. Further, there is always someone to guide the student when the subject matter is too complex and difficult to understand. In addition, the dissertation consultant can provide real-time guidance on what content to include, thereby offering helpful and meaningful critique on the dissertation.

The students availing the services of a dissertation consultant must make sure that their concerns and questions are addressed to their satisfaction and understanding. For this purpose, they must enquire about the qualifications and experience of the dissertation consultant in question. Often, the best way to choose a dissertation consultant is by word of mouth; students should seek references from fellow students or colleagues. However, even Google can sometimes yield a very high quality consultant, although it is best to communicate effectively with the dissertation consultant to make sure that the student and the dissertation consultant are a good fit.

There must be a good work dynamic between the student and the dissertation consultant. If that does not happen, it will create friction between the two individuals and ultimately it will effect the quality of the dissertation. Where there is proper and free communication between the dissertation consultant and the student, there are correspondingly results of much higher quality. Students must always feel free to discuss new ideas with the dissertation consultant.

It is important to think of the dissertation consultant as a mentor or guide rather than a vendor who provides academic assistance for a fee. The right dissertation consultant will provide an experience that lasts the student a lifetime, as the dissertation consultant teaches the student to fish rather than merely giving the student a fish to eat.
