Dissertation writing is not an easy thing. You should take so many steps, do so much work, and meet all the deadlines.
 
Usually, students try to find support in order to cope with this challenging assignment: graduate students, fellows, parents, psychologists, spiritual gurus, or dissertation coaches.
 
Many students still think that a dissertation coach and dissertation advisor is the same person. WRONG! This is why let us explain the differences between a dissertation coach and a dissertation advisor:
 
REMEMBER:
 
You HAVE TO choose a dissertation advisor. You cannot start writing your dissertation until you find an advisor. This person will inform you on all necessary requirements you have to meet, approve/disprove the chosen topic, methods, your proposal, etc.
 
It is NOT OBLIGATORY to choose a dissertation coach. However, it is preferable. Even more, you can hire a dissertation coach. This person will help you stay on track, manage your time, find needed sources, etc.
 
CONSIDER:
 
Your advisor can only specify necessary requirements and format. Unfortunately, he/she will not explain you every detail.
 
Your dissertation coach will provide you with good examples and explain what is actually expected from you. He/she will show you how to create a good outline for your project. Even more, you can do it together. So, do not be afraid to ask your dissertation coach for such help.
 
MIND:
 
Your dissertation coach may easily become a real friend of yours, whereas you had better save only professional relations with your advisor.
 
On our blog, you can also read about dissertation advisors or dissertation completion fellowships. Take into consideration that you can find a good dissertation coach, writer, or editor here as well. Good luck!
