Writing a dissertation is not easy, to say the least. It can be overwhelming, frustrating, and incredibly daunting, especially when you are trying to navigate the process while working full-time. Having someone in your corner who understands the process and can help you stay on track makes all the difference.
Amy Davies, PhD, and her team of dissertation experts at Dissertation Doctor helped me through what was, by far, one of the most challenging experiences of my life, but also one of the most worthwhile. Dr. Davies’ patience, knowledge, guidance, and strategies are bar none. She helped me navigate the dissertation process, develop a realistic timeline, and keep moving forward when the finish line sometimes felt very far away.
With Dr. Davies’ guidance, I was able to complete and successfully defend my dissertation in a little over a year while working full-time. During that same year, I also moved across the country and started a new job, which I definitely do not recommend doing while working on a dissertation! Through all of it, Dr. Davies helped me stay focused and keep moving forward.
I am incredibly proud that I finished, and I am so thankful I had Dr. Davies in my corner. In fact, my experience was so impactful that I have now decided to join her team as a dissertation mentor. I know firsthand how valuable it is to have someone walking alongside you during this process, and I am excited to now have the opportunity to provide that same kind of support to others.
I highly recommend Dissertation Doctor to anyone working toward completing their dissertation. You do not have to figure out the entire process alone, and having Dr. Davies and her team of dissertation experts in your corner can make all the difference.
Wendy J. Smith, Ed.D.
