A well-crafted dissertation begins with a clearly defined problem for research. In this personalized 120-minute coaching session, we will help you develop a problem statement that is firmly grounded in the scholarly literature within your academic discipline—not simply a practical issue or personal interest, but a research problem that addresses a meaningful gap in existing knowledge.
Together, we will refine your research focus, evaluate the evidence supporting your proposed problem, and ensure your problem statement is clear, specific, significant, and supported by current scholarship. We will also guide you in developing research questions that logically flow from the identified problem and are fully aligned with your purpose statement, research design, methodology, and intended scholarly contribution.
Throughout the session, you'll receive expert, strategic, and timely feedback that you can immediately incorporate into your work, helping you avoid common mistakes that often lead to committee revisions or proposal delays. Our goal is to ensure that every element of your study is aligned from the very beginning, creating a strong conceptual foundation for the remainder of your dissertation.
Whether you are drafting Chapter 1 for the first time or revising your proposal based on committee feedback, this coaching session will provide the clarity, direction, and confidence needed to move forward.
Ideal for students who are:
Struggling to articulate a clear and defensible problem for research
Receiving feedback that their problem statement or research questions lack clarity or alignment
Preparing to write or revise Chapter 1 or a dissertation proposal
Seeking to strengthen the scholarly foundation of their study before committee review
Outcome: Leave with a clearly articulated, literature-supported problem statement, logically aligned research questions, and a strong conceptual framework that positions your dissertation proposal for a smoother review and approval process.
