Thank you for sharing your advice and experience with finding a dissertation coach.
One last question: was Allison local? Did you work in person or over the phone or by email? I hadn't realized until looking around that coaching is often done by phone or email . . .
Best,
Nan
dissertation coach
No, she wasn't a local person. The first consultation was by phone and we talked for about an hour. After I decided to hire her, we talked again and worked out a timetable for me to finish my study. After that we had weekly phone calls and emailed once or twice a week in addition to that. As I got closer to finishing we changed to calls every 2 weeks. I ended up working with her for about 4 months. The phone calls were very motivating for me. I really wanted to get things done when I knew I would be talking to her every week about what I had completed.
CI for Lark at 9:00am
I'm still playing catch up here. There are many unfinished things around here, so I made a written copy of them. To reduce the pressure, I'll be happy to finish three or four of them today. I don't know which yet, but I'll check in in a couple of hours and let everyone know how it's working. Good luck.
