After I was matched with my editor, we began working in sections as I completed parts of my dissertation. Once my dissertation was completed, my Heartful Editor coach was able to help me structure the dissertation according to Cal Lutheran's handbook and APA guidelines, saving me countless hours and stress.

My Heartful Editors team helped take some of the stress out of the dissertation process. Having my team edit my chapters throughout the process allowed for my chair and professors to focus on the big picture ideas when providing feedback, instead of having to focus on formatting or grammar. Heartful Editors is worth every cent — I highly recommend them.

Essay writing

As a multilingual learner, I appreciate the support of Heartful Editors. I started working with an editor at the beginning of my dissertation proposal and have been able to refine my work throughout the entire cycle of my writing process.
