Benefits of 1-on-1 Coaching

One-on-one science writing coaching gives you personalised support to improve your writing skills and become a more confident writer. Unlike group workshops, coaching focuses specifically on your writing, your challenges and your goals.

Rather than simply correcting your writing, coaching can help you understand why something isn't working and how to approach it differently next time.

Feedback & Consulting Process

1. Attend introductory meeting

The first step is to attend a free introductory meeting to discuss your writing goals and key challenges. You can ask any questions related to any writing issues and Marina will discuss different ways to help you improve your writing.

2. Submit writing sample for feedback

After the initial consultation, Marina will review a sample of your writing and provide personalised feedback. The feedback may cover a range of writing topics, depending on your goals and the issues identified during the review.

3. Attend one-on-one tutorials

Depending on the amount and type of feedback provided, a complimentary follow-up tutorial will be offered to further explore the issues identified in your writing and answer any questions to help you improve your writing for future projects.
