Coaching Services
I assist individual scholars in improving their academic writing in private coaching sessions via phone or Zoom. Coaching clients have included graduate students revising their dissertations, adjunct or assistant professors on the tenure track, and international scholars adjusting to the norms of academic writing in the English language.
As your writing coach, I aim to work myself out of a job, so you no longer need hire me (or any other editor) in future.
Coaching sessions cover whatever you need at the moment, but often include:
setting strategic publication goals
managing writing time to meet deadlines
brainstorming new article ideas
going over outlines and revisions
drafting book proposals
preparing manuscripts for submission
identifying and fixing recurring issues in writing style or authorial voice
responding to reviews and acquisitions editors’ requests for revision
Coaching Kudos
“I much appreciate Jaida’s perceptiveness in identifying what I need to add and revise in my writing projects. Since we began working together three years ago, I have completed and published three major articles and signed a contract with a book publisher. I consider myself incredibly lucky and privileged to have her by my side on my tenure-track journey.”
“When I was working alone, I lacked confidence and was unable to write. Now I can put my thoughts on paper, knowing that Jaida will make sure I don’t fail. This provides me with the confidence I need to be productive.”
