Highly-Experienced Ph.D.-Level Academic Writer to [Heavily] Clean Up Edu. Dissertation Introduction
Heavy Editing of Chapter 1 – Dissertation on Teacher Stress, Well-Being & Retention
----------
I’m looking for an experienced academic editor (preferably with a background in education, psychology, or social science research) to help me refine and personalize Chapter 1 of my dissertation.
The chapter is already written, but my advisor has flagged it as sounding too epigonous and formulaic — essentially, it needs to reflect more of my voice and feel more natural, human, and grounded.
----------
What I Need:
Heavy editing of my existing Chapter 1
A focus on making the tone sound more authentic and aligned with my voice
Ensure the flow, structure, and academic tone are clear and compelling
Eliminate anything that feels robotic, overly polished, or generic
Correct any minor APA formatting or citation errors
-----------
About the Research:
My study explores the relationship between teacher stress, burnout, and well-being, and how a teacher’s state of being impacts not only their students and work environment, but more critically — their decision to remain in the profession.
This is for a doctoral-level dissertation, so experience with academic standards and scholarly tone is essential.
----------
What I’ll Provide:
The current Chapter 1 draft (Google Docs)
Additional context about my natural writing style and tone
-----------
About My Voice (So You Can Match It):
My writing style is:
Conversational but sharp – I write like I speak: smart, direct, sometimes playful, always intentional.
Emotionally grounded – I care about the why, the feeling, the lived experience behind the research.
Sincere, not sterile – I want my writing to reflect a real, passionate human, not a generic academic ghost.
Reflective and purpose-driven – I often write from a lens of justice, care, and experience, especially regarding education and identity.
Clear moreso than Complex – I value clarity over vocabulary flexing. If it doesn’t serve the message, I cut it.
I want this to sound like a brilliant, deeply invested woman educator — not a ChatGPT clone (please do not use AI or ChatGPT!) or a student checking off boxes.
