Dissertation Proofreading & Editing for Students Worldwide
Proofreading, editing, structure feedback and referencing checks to help you polish your own work.
Work with qualified human specialists at the right academic level, while your ideas and research stay at the centre.
Support for every chapter of your dissertation
A dissertation is usually written to a deadline and a word limit, and it is often your first long piece of independent research. We help you tighten each chapter of your own work, so you stay the author from the proposal to the final reference.
Choose a focused, workable topic
Feedback on whether your topic is narrow enough for the word count, and whether your research question and aims fit together, so your supervisor sees a workable plan early.
Organise your sources and evidence
Guidance on grouping sources by theme instead of listing them one by one, and on showing where your own question fits in the existing research.
Make your approach easy to follow
Checks that your methods section explains what you did and why, and that your findings match your aims, with technical subjects reviewed by specialists.
Finish with a strong argument
Feedback on how your discussion answers your research question, plus a referencing check in Harvard, APA, OSCOLA, MHRA and more, with citations and bibliography checked.
Support that fits your level of study
Most dissertations are written for a final-year undergraduate or Master’s course. Whatever your level, you get support from a specialist at the right academic level.

Dissertation FAQs
No. We support students to improve their own work, so we do not write dissertations for submission, and we decline any order that asks us to.
Many universities allow proofreading of your own work, but the rules differ and some limit what a proofreader may change. Check your university’s policy and tell us about any limits before we start. Our guide explains how to check your university’s policy.
Standard turnaround is 5 working days, with 48-hour and 24-hour options. Tell us your deadline when you ask for a quote and we will say what is realistic.
Proofreading corrects spelling, grammar, punctuation and consistency. Editing and structure feedback also looks at clarity, flow and how your argument is organised, using tracked changes and comments. A free sample helps you decide which you need.
For quantitative projects you can add a statistics check of your own data and analysis (SPSS, R, Stata, Excel) for £50 per project. Qualitative projects are charged at standard rates.
Send the marking criteria and module handbook with your draft. We can give feedback on structure, clarity and referencing with them in mind, but we do not predict marks or write content to meet them.

Contact Us To Get Started →Before you submit your dissertation: a quick checklist
- Does your research question appear in the introduction, and does the conclusion answer it directly?
- Is every chapter within the word limit, including the abstract if one is required?
- Does each paragraph in the literature review say something about your question, not just summarise a source?
- Are all citations in the text listed in the bibliography, in one referencing style?
- Are headings, figure numbers and table captions consistent and in the order your department asks for?
- Have you read the whole draft aloud, or had someone else read it, for sentences that are hard to follow?
