Here are some of the services that we can offer

NUMBER 1
ESSAY WRITING SKILLS

How to improve your writing skills at university.
For example:
  • What does your lecturer/teacher look for in a good essay? 
  • How to write an academic essay or dissertation?
  • How to structure your essay and write a good introduction and conclusion?
  • How to engage critically with modern scholarship and ancient evidence?
  • And what about referencing guidelines, footnotes, Harvard-style, APA & co., images, tables,... not to mention spelling, punctuation and grammar?
The same is true for other assignments, like academic posters, independent projects, video documentaries, student exhibitions, wikis, blogs, reviews and many more.

Essay / Dissertation Writing Skills (one hour)

£35.00

Choose this option if you need help to write a good essay/dissertation and/or feedback on your draft essay - equivalent to a one-hour session. Depending on the situation and the stage of progress of your assignment, this session can be a one-hour online brainstorming session or a session on particular problems you have encountered (e.g., literature research, critical engagement, writing style, etc.). If you wish me to read your draft before the meeting, then the actual session may only be 20-30 minutes long.

NUMBER 2
ONE-TO-ONE TUTORIAL

  • how to be crticial and analytical in your approach,
  • how to get organised for independent research,
  • how to use library and online facilities,

Whether a one-off brainstorming session or a weekly meeting, it will help you to improve your results at university.

NUMBER 3
LEARN ACADEMIC GERMAN or ENGLISH or another language // DO YOU NEED HELP WITH LATIN...?

Depending on your subject and your own specialism, you will find that you need other foreign languages for your studies and your research. Many humanities subjects are very international and you limit yourself significantly if you only engage with scholarship in your native language. For example, papers in English, French, German, Italian and Spanish are often essential for many studies regarding the ancient world. And many archaeological reports are often only published in the local language.
_______

We don't intend to give you an introduction to German or French (or English if required) and we are not going to learn how to order a coffee or pizza in another language.
Our main aim is to help you with academic writing and academic language.
What does this mean? First, reading an academic paper in a foreign language can be challenging, even if you already have a basic knowledge of that language.
You may not have to learn an entire language. It always depends on your needs: for instance, perhaps you only need to consult an excavation report or a coin catalogue in another language: just the basics words are enough to understand the information you require.
______
But perhaps you also need to write a paper or article in German, French or English and you are struggling to find the right words for an academic publications?
_______
We can do this as a one-to-one session via Skype or as a group session, as a regular session or just the focused help for a particular assignment. We can also meet face-to-face, for example for a block seminar. Contact us to discuss what suits you best and what you want us to cover.
Keep calm... and improve your language skills!
We can organise a one-off or a weekly language class for a goup of students, tailoured to your needs.

Academic Language Group Workshop (e.g. German for English speakers) (pro person)

£25.00

Do you need to improve your knowledge of language? Are you struggling with a foreign language, like German/French/English, or academic jargon, or are you interested in ancient languages, like Latin?

Do you need to read articles and books (e.g. in German) for your studies at university? You have never done German before? Or you know German, but struggle with the academic writing style?

Why not organise a workshop for several students with similar requirements at your university.

It can be done via video conference/skype or also face-to-face.

The price of £25 is for one hour per person for a group meeting of at least three students. But we can also organise a two-hour, one-day or five-day workshop: please ask for rates. And please email me for dates that suit you most.

If you prefer a one-to-one meeting, better book a one-to-one tutorial.

Other linguistic problems, please enquire: Middle High German? Academic French? Academic English...? Latin? Greek?

We can also organise one-to-one language classes.

NUMBER 4
ACADEMIC PROOFREADING

Academic writing is a skill. And proofreading is essential to produce the perfect paper, article, essay, dissertation or PhD thesis - both for students and professionals.
HIgh quality proofreading is also quite time consuming so that one can only do a maximum of 4,000 words in an hour.
Remember, we will follow the rules and regulations of your university and department, i.e. our service does not constitute a case of unfair practice or plagiarism.

Academic Proofreading (up to 3,000 words)

£35.00

PROOFREADING / KORREKTURLESEN: High quality proofreading of academic papers, articles, essays, dissertations, etc. in English or German, providing you with detailed feedback and corrections. The standard one-hour rate of £35 covers approximately 3,000 words of your work, including any footnotes, captions, etc. An additional fee may occur in case the provided writing requires substantial re-writing, re-phrasing and/or the verification of facts and references,
