PhD Editing Service

It takes time and a great deal of iteration to produce a PhD thesis. The process demands rigorous research work, write-ups, deliberations with supervisors, friends and colleagues, rethinking, and more writing. Often, the cycle has to be repeated several times for years with the hope that the final product will not only lead to a prestigious qualification but a report that readers will find useful. It is for this reason that many PhD candidates have come to rely on the assistance of qualified and diligent proof-readers and editors who ensure the integrity of the presented work.

Towards the final phase, the PhD process involves a lot of editing and proofreading. This process ensures that your PhD research report is given its final touches before printing. The PhD editing process is both difficult and time-consuming. It is for this reason that we believe your draft could benefit from our PhD editing service. This will give you the confidence that your report has gone through an extra independent and objective quality control process before it is presented to the academic community and the general public.

Below are some reasons why you should consider our PhD editing service.

Saves time: Because they are independent and objective, our editors are capable of editing your draft and identifying some issues you may have missed. They can do this within a shorter period because they are experienced experts. This saves you much-needed time, which you can then use to accomplish other important tasks before the final submission. From our experience, we have noted that PhD candidates often run out of time towards the end, a situation our editors are always happy to remedy with fast turnaround times.

Eases academic stress: We recognise that PhD candidates can often be overwhelmed by the rush to finish a final draft, edit and proofread it, and to perform all the requisite administration before submission. By allowing us to take care of the editing process, you avoid the stress we have often noted among PhD students who regularly turn to us when it’s too late. With an experienced editor assisting you to objectively identify blind spots and offer an added layer of quality control, you reduce the stress of wondering whether you are doing the right thing or not.

Enhances style: Our editing process is designed to improve the language, form, and sentence structure. Our sole aim is to make sure you will submit a final draft that is readable, concise, and well written. The use of appropriate style is crucial for creating a good impression on your readership. It also ensures that your insights are understood and can, therefore, be evaluated fairly on their own merits. As we edit, we provide suggestions about how your style can be enhanced. We are able to do this because we have spent many years putting together the knowledge we have gained from PhD candidates from across the world.

Enriches format: Formatting is arguably one of the most time-consuming aspects of PhD editing and proofreading. Most candidates are not well versed with Word or other document editing programs at their disposal, not to mention the stringent and often obscure university requirements. Our experienced editors will format your draft to meet all of your university’s standards, while also giving it a professional look.

Eliminates errors: It is expected, especially when dealing with lengthy documents written over the course of years, for minor mistakes to creep in. Some of the most common mistakes include misplaced apostrophes, typos, missed page numbers in in-text citations, strange line breaks, hard to read sentences, overuse of certain phrases, etc. Spotting such errors is not easy, especially when dealing with such a lengthy document, with such strict deadlines. We often notice that after reading a text for several times, the writer ends up reading what they want to see as opposed to what is actually on the paper. This is where our expert editors come in; to spot all these difficult to detect errors in a document, leaving it flawless and ready for submission.

Improve language: Our editors also do a lot of work with PhD candidates whose mother tongue is not English. For such candidates, language can become a barrier that interferes with the presentation of ideas and arguments. Our editors are always ready to paraphrase expression so that PhD candidates can express themselves eloquently. This ensures that the quality of your work is not negatively impacted by the fact that you are not a first language English speaker.

Improves feedback: The combination of the benefits above can often lead to candidates receiving improved feedback and remarks. This helps the candidate avoid unnecessary penalties for such things as misspellings or typos, and formatting. Hence with our editing service, your submission is likely to be well-received owing to its clarity, neatness, and style. From our experience, we have noted that PhD candidates who receive better feedback from supervisors tend to be more motivated and complete their studies within their prescribed time frames.

Since producing a PhD thesis is such a demanding task, we believe that our PhD editing service offers an opportunity for candidates to focus on the critical elements of their studies and leave us to take care of the typos, wording, formatting, and providing clarity.

We provide a fast and efficient service, but as texts vary greatly, we do need to see a portion of your work to estimate how much time is required.
