• Teach time management, given the learners scheduled
• Encourage the learner to establish on-going dialogue with their faculty and committee members on a consistent basis.

How does the coaching work?

• Coaching is rendered through various mediums such as telephone, Skype, Microsoft Teams, Zoom, FaceTime or WhatsApp. We work with students in the US and internationally.
• First, we will design an overall structure that includes a timeline and weekly action plans.
• Set a clear set of dissertation tasks you can complete on a weekly and day-to-day basis.
• Meet with you every week to review your progress.
• Provide the learner with unlimited email and/or text communication as a way to support the learner as questions or issues arise.
• Coaching is provided on a monthly basis. The learner is not required to make long-term commitments.
