All students working on dissertation projects have dissertation advisors to help them get through all the difficulties. Advisors are different. Some of them are really good, always ready to give a piece of advice and necessary support.
 
Others are not that helpful, do not really care too much about you and your project, and most of the times you have to struggle with your dissertation on your own.
 
However, no matter what advisor you have, a dissertation coach is a person who can help you overcome all the challenges. Have you not thought of hiring a dissertation coach? Or, you do not really know what dissertation coaches do? Then we can explain everything about them right now.
Things that a dissertation coach can help you with
 
So, this is a list of things that a dissertation coach can do for you:

• Help you determine short and long-term goals;
• Help you work on a regular basis, because you will have to complete some weekly tasks;
• Help you with time management;
• Give ideas as to some effective writing techniques;
• Help you choose and plan career;
• Encourage and help you stay motivated throughout the writing process.

Things dissertation coaches do not do:

• A dissertation coach will not write your project for you;
• He/she will not help you with materials;
• Dissertation coaches usually do not help with content;
• Finally, a dissertation coach will not replace your advisor.

Probably, the only small drawback of a dissertation coach is that you have to pay for his/her help. Yet, the choice is up to you. You can save money and spend more time and nerves on writing your dissertation. Or, you can pay money and make the writing and research processes less distressful.
 
In fact, one more way to survive your project is to join a dissertation/thesis support group.
