“As someone who has not always been confident in his writing, I was looking for a service to assist with this. In my first attempt, I did not successfully pass my comprehensive examination. With the assistance and guidance of the Done Dissertation Service, not only did I pass my comprehensive examination, my committee noted that I made substantial progress in my writing.”

"Dr. Goings' coaching program has played an instrumental part in my success as a doctoral student. Prior to working with Done Dissertation Coaching Services, I did not have the confidence that I would successfully matriculate through my doctoral studies. Dr. Goings, conditioned me to become a strong, critical, independent writer. He’s passionate about his work and cares about his students' success! I am entering the last phase of the dissertation process. I wouldn’t be at this milestone without Dr. Goings’ support along my journey."
