Dissertation Tips, Essay Writing, Evidence Based Practice – Ask Study Coach Blog
Students can Ask Study Coach for help to improve essay writing and dissertation writing. Study Coach UK is here to provide general and academic support for students here in the UK and abroad. Asking for essay and dissertation writing tips/guidance is different to asking an essay mill to write your assignments (using the service of an essay mill to write your essay is unethical and is clearly not good practice). Study Coach UK provides study guidance on a number of subjects, including helping international students to prepare for the IELTS visa entry, English Language University exam.

(3) Question: Is it okay to seek help with academic assignments?
Answer: Yes, it is permitted to ask for academic support, but what is not okay is to ask someone to write the essay for you. I need help with essay writing should not be rephrased to ‘write the essay for me’.
(4) Question: Do you have any essay writing tips for mature students returning to education?
Answer: Mature students coming from an Access Diploma course, can sometimes need support to understand concepts. When preparing to write an essay a writing tip is to make a conscious effort to understand key conceptual ideas for the assignment. See the blog where you will find an explanation on concepts:
Theories and Concepts:
Ask Study Coach will offer more guidance on conceptual ideas and theories in future blogs, frameworks will also be addressed along with other academic topics.
(5) Question: What can help me write an essay?
Answer: The college or university assessment criteria is a good starting point to help students to write an essay. Students should focus on the learning outcomes/assessment criteria. Carefully read the University guidance, if it states that you need to discuss the concept of ‘reasonableness’ for a Law essay, then do so (don’t ignore university instructions).
(6) Question: What do I need to do to achieve high grades?
Answer: You will need to support your essay with research evidence that is current and relevant to the essay topic or research project. Sourcing good evidence, and applying the evidence (what is referred to as Evidence Based Practice – EBP) will certainly help students to achieve high grades.
(7) Question: How can I approach a Primary Research Dissertation Proposal?
Answer: If planning to do Primary research you will need to create a title, make the title specific and focus on the aim of the research. You need to ensure that the research aim and objectives, and issues surrounding methodology are well considered. It is advisable to read recommended research methodology books prior to thinking about the research proposal.
(8) Question: Why read research methodology books?
Answer: It is important to read books on how to do research, how to understand research methodology because methodology is a major part of the dissertation. In the dissertation you will need to talk about sampling, data collection, ethics, qualitative and quantitative methods, and many other research methodological issues.
