Get better results with our thesis and dissertation editing service
Don’t lose precious marks for weaknesses in your writing style
Each year, our subject-specialist editors help thousands of students get better results through our thesis and dissertation editing services.
Are you an ESL student?
We specialise in helping ESL students match the writing abilities of their native-speaking classmates. We can ensure that your document reads in a confident academic style, with clarity of expression, free from English errors.
Through a comprehensive review of your dissertation or thesis, we will eliminate errors while improving the language and register of your writing. We’ll also provide feedback on how you can refine the composition of your paper to improve your grades.
Improved style, tone and register
We’ll improve your diction to ensure that your dissertation or thesis has a confident academic tone and an appropriate register.

Dr Smith, PhD This phrase can either be hyphenated or unhyphenated when used in this context (modifying another word or phrase that follows it), but the unhyphenated form is more common, so I will follow that style throughout this document.
General feedback and advice
The editor will provide feedback and advice on the content and structure of your document, both within the text and in their Editor’s Summary Report (for orders over 3,000 words).

Get the support of highly experienced academic editors
We’ll ensure that your dissertation or thesis is submitted in the best possible condition by assigning it to an academic editor with expertise in your field.
Each year, our editors review more than 6,000 dissertations and theses from a range of subject areas for students and PhD candidates from all over the world. Our clients’ feedback is overwhelmingly positive, and we work hard on each order to keep it this way.
Don’t lose precious marks for weaknesses in your English and academic style
At most universities, up to 20% of your grade depends on the quality of your writing.
Our editors will ensure that you don’t lose precious marks due to weaknesses in your writing ability. We’ll improve academic tone, register, flow and structure to help ensure that your writing is well received by the grading professor.
Are you an ESL student or academic?
Writing in a second language is challenging, and doing so to an academic standard is even more difficult. There are so many obscure stylistic conventions that even educated native speakers sometimes struggle with academic writing.
As current and former academics, our editors know exactly what grading professors do—and don’t—want to see in a dissertation or thesis.
Hire the experts to help
Nothing influences your final degree classification more than the mark you receive for your dissertation or thesis.
If you choose to hire us to review and improve your dissertation or thesis, you are making an investment in your education and the result of your degree or doctorate. Our previous clients will attest to this.
Subject-matter expertise
With 300+ editors spanning the full spectrum of academic disciplines, we can pair most documents with a professional who has experience in the subject area. We know there is no substitute for subject-matter expertise.
More than 300 experienced academic editors
All of our editors hold advanced degrees from leading global universities.
Many are members of leading industry bodies, such as the Board of Editors in the Life Sciences (BELS) and the Council of Science Editors (CSE).
Our rigorous selection process ensures that we work with only the best editors.
