Testimonials.

First, I love Trinka. Congratulations on developing something that extensively aids editing, especially critical grammar conventions and word count reductions.

James Smith

I've been using Trinka for four months now, and I have extensive experience with other grammar checker systems. I've used the proofreader for two ten-page papers, and I must admit, I'm quite impressed by its quality and usefulness. I am very satisfied with Trinka and strongly recommend it for academic proofreading.

Emmanuel Lochin

Writing texts with correct English grammar and style is not an easy task for people who speak other languages. Sometimes you cannot find little mistakes in your document without help and moreover for academic writing. I tried Trinka AI as a tool of automatic correction and was quite glad with the suggested corrections and the feedback. With the feedback you understand why the suggested change must be taken into account.

Rosa Diaz Sandoval

Trinka has a robust proofreading feature that allows me to effortlessly upload entire manuscript documents and receive fully tracked changes in a single step. Moreover, its unique supporting tools such as citation checker and journal finder, significantly enhance the efficiency of my research endeavours.

Fouad Khalifa

I just wanted to say thank you for such a great and free service, all the other grammar checkers and writing assistants I have tried don’t have nearly the depth of features let alone all available on a free subscription. As a student with little income available I am extremely grateful that unlike all others companies you don’t limit features on the free plan. This is a fantastic product and given the income I would definitely upgrade to the premium. I've let all my fellow students know about Trinka as it is seriously a life saver.

Jesse Rumball-Smith

I have mainly used it to improve the language, grammar, and syntax of the scientific manuscripts that I write for national and international biomedical journals. I have found the interface to be user friendly and the procedure itself is efficient and hassle-free. The auto-edit is a great help and the supplementary page with the revision summary is an excellent idea.

Dr. Farooq Rathore

Trinka AI is a great tool to help beginners in research publication. Its grammar editing, online proofreading with file download, citation checker, plagiarism checker, paraphraser, and journal finder provide amazing features at your fingertips. Even the free Trinka Basic plan can be invaluable for researchers in their early stages or at PG levels, helping them improve project reports and papers to meet publication standards. Overall, I'm extremely impressed with Trinka AI, as it stands out among research writing tools. Give it a try and you will love it! Thanks Trinka AI team for this valuable tool.

Dr. Nitin Wahi

Trinka.ai is my most favorite choice for grammar and spelling edit. The application works correctly, is fast and tidily! Completely satisfied!

Georgieva Milena

The grammar checking tool exceeds Grammarly! I re-checked some documents that I had checked earlier with Grammarly. I was pleasantly surprised to see such a product from India!

Dinesh Gupta

Trinka has awesome features. Advanced level of academic writing checker and suggestion are so original. I would highly recommend to others.

Aftab Hussain

I have tested Trinka and am impressed with its fine capabilities. It did better than the grammar checkers I use. Well done! I have told my colleagues in my research lab to use Trinka. Hope it is widely used in academia.

Edith Davies

Trinka AI's suggested corrections and feedback astounded me. It is simple to use and extremely beneficial

Noor Al-rishi

It's been a wonderful experience using Trinka and I almost can't submit any manuscript without re-evaluating with it. In summary, Trinka has been a life-saver.

I trust and use Trinka as a final spot check for my edited documents. It helps me find the few remaining errors that I have missed during the primary editing. I really like using this platform for my writing. One particular feature that works well for me is the thumbs down button.

Stumpf Curtis

I think Trinka.ai is a very interesting and potentially useful idea, especially for editors/publishers/journals. I found it very useful when I checked my editing work on the platform.

Dyke Gareth

I am happy with the overall performance. I have been using Grammarly for a long while, but when it comes to academic or technical writing, Trinka is definitely a much better option. Academic document settings and auto file edit are my favorite features.

Bhargava Sharma

Trinka has become my go-to tool for grammar corrections. The AI-powered corrections and language enhancements made writing a lot more easier. Now I am able to focus more on research than on writing an error-free document.

Ralph Bailey

The grammar correction and suggestion based on the AMA style guide is really impressive! Trinka is indeed the best grammar correction tool for medical writing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the most popular editing-related questions we receive.

Editing & Proofreading

How do you edit and proofread.

Our editing and proofreading process is 100% manual - in other words, it's handled by a team of highly qualified human editors, not machines . We don't use any automation software or tools, as nothing can beat the quality and accuracy of human editing.

Our editing team consists of a diverse mix of Doctoral and Master's-qualified language specialists . The team is managed by Dr Eunice Rautenbach , who holds both a Master's and Doctoral degree in language practice. All team members have extensive academic editing experience, are native English speakers (from the US, UK and SA) and have worked on numerous dissertations, theses and research projects.

Can I see an example/sample of your editing?

Certainly . You can download a sample editing and proofreading project here .

Will you sort out my references and citations?

Yes . As part of the editing process, we will ensure that your references and citations are in the correct format (e.g., Harvard, APA, etc) as per your university's requirements (you'll need to advise us what these are).

However, keep in mind that we can't fill in incomplete references or find the relevant sources for you (as it's impossible for us to know which sources you've referenced). We also cannot check whether the references you have are accurate or suitable for the arguments you make in your writing.

Can you fix/build my table of contents?

Yes , we can create a table of contents based on the headings and subheadings throughout your dissertation or thesis. This table of contents will include the respective page number for each heading or subheading.

Can you lower my word count?

Yes - as part of the editing process, we will edit your work for concision. However, we cannot guarantee a specific word count or percentage reduction, as this would risk cutting out important content.

Can you check my work for plagiarism?

Yes - we can provide a detailed plagiarism report with every editing and proofreading project. However, please keep in mind that universities use a variety of plagiarism-checking services. Therefore, if your university provides you with a plagiarism-checking facility (as they often do), you should double-check your score on that system.

How long does the editing and proofreading process take?

It depends on the length of the document, the overall quality of the writing (i.e., the number of issues to be resolved) and our project load at the time of submission.

Generally speaking, we can complete a standard dissertation/thesis of 20,000 words within 2-3 days , but this varies depending on the factors above. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you pre-book your editing with us for a specific date. For pre-booked projects, we can provide a guaranteed timeline, which is generally shorter than that of "walk-in" projects. Please email us to pre-book your project.

Can you provide a certificate of editing?

Yes , certainly. We can issue a certificate according to your university's requirements. We can also sign any paperwork required by your university as proof of editing.

Will my document be treated as confidential?

Yes , absolutely. Your work will be treated as strictly confidential and will never be shared or published. We will gladly sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) with you if you wish.

How much does editing cost?

Our fee is based on the total word count of the document. This includes the body content and the reference list (as we need to review this). You can also include the appendices if you wish, but it's generally not required.

Click here to view our pricing or book a free consultation to discuss your project.

When should I submit my document to you?

Generally, editing and proofreading should be the very last step in your writing process. This ensures that you don't "undo" any editing work, or introduce new typos or grammar issues.

However, if your supervisor has specifically instructed you to get your work edited before submitting it to them for final review, you should follow their instructions. If you're unsure which approach to take, get in touch with us.

Can you edit my dissertation/thesis as I complete each chapter?

We can, but we don't recommend it . By editing chapter by chapter, consistency is reduced and there is a strong chance that there will be conflicts between document versions in terms of references, page, table and figure numbers, and so on. As a result, a lot of the work will be "undone" and you'll need to spend a lot of time revising and checking each section.

How much time should I factor in post-edit to make corrections?

We recommend that you factor in a day or two to make your final corrections after receiving your document back from us. This is not essential (as you can just accept all our edits "as is"), but it is a good idea to have a buffer in case you want to make any additions or revisions. You might also need to fix issues highlighted by the edit, e.g., regarding clarity of meaning or problems flagged with your referencing.

Can you do a second review of my document after the first edit?

We can review your document as many times as you need , but each review is charged separately. In other words, we cannot provide a second review (after we've edited and proofread) free of charge.

Can you check that my Conclusions and Recommendations represent all my findings?

This is beyond the scope of language editing, as it involves data analysis and interpretation. If you would like assistance with this, we can assist with 1-on-1 coaching , where we review your work critically and provide in-depth feedback (you can view a sample of this here ).

Can you write my abstract (or exec summary) for me?

No , we can't. As part of the editing process, we will improve the quality of your writing, but we cannot write any section for you. Having any section written for you would constitute academic misconduct.

Can you rephrase text to reduce my plagiarism score?

No , we can’t. While we may undertake some very light rewriting of poorly constructed sentences to improve readability and ease of understanding, we cannot revise content to reduce plagiarism, as we are not familiar with the articles/sources being referenced.

Can you arrange the separate sections of my document?

No , we cannot arrange (or rearrange) sections of content on your behalf, as this may impact the core meaning and/or the thread of argument.

That said, if we feel that a section could be structured better for clarity, we will comment on this and make suggestions. Additionally, we will check that your headings and subheadings are numbered sequentially and are consistent in style.

I still have questions…

No problem. Feel free to email us or book an initial consultation to discuss.

What Our Clients Say...

We've worked 1:1 with 3000+ students . Here's what some of them have to say:

David's depth of knowledge in research methodology was truly impressive. He demonstrated a profound understanding of the nuances and complexities of my research area, offering insights that I hadn't even considered. His ability to synthesize information, identify key research gaps, and suggest research topics was truly inspiring. I felt like I had a true expert by my side, guiding me through the complexities of the proposal.

Cyntia Sacani (US)

I had been struggling with the first 3 chapters of my dissertation for over a year. I finally decided to give GradCoach a try and it made a huge difference. Alexandra provided helpful suggestions along with edits that transformed my paper. My advisor was very impressed.

Tracy Shelton (US)

Working with Kerryn has been brilliant. She has guided me through that pesky academic language that makes us all scratch our heads. I can't recommend Grad Coach highly enough; they are very professional, humble, and fun to work with. If like me, you know your subject matter but you're getting lost in the academic language, look no further, give them a go.

Tony Fogarty (UK)

So helpful! Amy assisted me with an outline for my literature review and with organizing the results for my MBA applied research project. Having a road map helped enormously and saved a lot of time. Definitely worth it.

Jennifer Hagedorn (Canada)

Everything about my experience was great, from Dr. Shaeffer’s expertise, to her patience and flexibility. I reached out to GradCoach after receiving a 78 on a midterm paper. Not only did I get a 100 on my final paper in the same class, but I haven’t received a mark less than A+ since. I recommend GradCoach for everyone who needs help with academic research.

Antonia Singleton (Qatar)

I started using Grad Coach for my dissertation and I can honestly say that if it wasn’t for them, I would have really struggled. I would strongly recommend them – worth every penny!

Best Tools For Thesis Writing

It works with many reference management software, ensuring that all bibliographical entries are error-free and consistently formatted. These includes: 

One of the lesser-known features of Grammarly is its ability to suggest rephrases for overused or unclear phrases, a common issue in lengthy academic pieces like dissertations or theses. This aids immensely in maintaining a clear and engaging narrative throughout the writing process.

Additionally, for students working with LaTeX for technical writing or complex document formatting, Grammarly’s ability to check the clarity and readability of text, when used in conjunction with a LaTeX editor, is invaluable.

Grammarly’s free version is robust enough to handle the basics of grammar, spelling, and punctuation. However, for a more in-depth analysis like vocabulary enhancement and advanced grammar checks, the premium version steps in.

Turnitin – Remove Plagiarism From Your Academic Writing

Turnitin is far more than just a plagiarism checker; Turnitin offers a suite of features that profoundly enhance the writing and research process.

One of the lesser-known yet incredibly handy features is the ability to create and manage citations and bibliographies.

Compatible with reference management software like Mendeley, Zotero, and EndNote, Word simplifies the process of citation, crucial in avoiding plagiarism and ensuring proper acknowledgment of sources.

For those dealing with extensive research papers, Word’s navigation pane is a boon. It allows easy mapping and reorganization of sections, crucial in maintaining a coherent structure in your thesis. 

Word’s Review feature is invaluable for collaborative writing. It allows for tracking changes, inserting comments, and even comparing different versions of a document. This is particularly useful when multiple revisions are involved in the thesis writing process.

Freemind – Outline Your Dissertation

FreeMind, a mind mapping software, is an innovative tool that’s increasingly being utilized in the realm of academic writing, particularly for thesis and dissertation preparation.

This free, open-source software offers a dynamic way to organise:

• Research, and

At the heart of FreeMind’s utility is its ability to help students and researchers create visual outlines for their academic projects. This is particularly advantageous during the initial stages of thesis writing, where organizing a vast amount of information and ideas can be overwhelming.

FreeMind allows users to create nodes for each main idea or chapter of their thesis, to which they can add sub-nodes for more detailed points or references. This hierarchical structure makes it easier to map out the entire thesis, providing a clear overview of the project.

For graduate students embarking on extensive literature reviews, FreeMind can serve as a tool to categorize and link various sources and theories.

This not only aids in avoiding plagiarism by keeping track of citations but also helps in synthesising information from different sources cohesively.

Additionally, FreeMind’s compatibility with various word processing tools, like Microsoft Word and LaTeX, ensures that the transition from mind mapping to actual writing is seamless.

Its ability to export maps in multiple formats allows for easy integration into other software used in the writing process.

FreeMind’s real-time collaboration feature is a boon for those working on joint research papers or dissertations, facilitating brainstorming and idea-sharing among team members.

However, it’s important to note that while ChatGPT is a powerful tool, it should be used to complement traditional research methods, ensuring accuracy and credibility in academic work.

ChatGPT’s versatility extends to its compatibility with various software tools used in academic writing, such as Microsoft Word, LaTeX, and softwares like Mendeley, Zotero, and EndNote. This compatibility streamlines the writing process, from initial research to the final draft.

Canva – Software Tools For Graphics

Canva, primarily known for its graphic design capabilities, is increasingly finding its way into the realm of academic writing, particularly in the visual presentation of complex data and information.

This tool, with its user-friendly interface, offers a fresh approach to creating visually appealing elements for theses, dissertations, and research papers.

In the process of thesis writing, Canva can be used to design compelling graphics, such as infographics and charts, which are essential in representing data in a more digestible format.

This is especially beneficial in fields where visual data presentation can significantly enhance the understanding of complex topics.

Canva’s vast library of templates and design elements allows for the creation of professional-looking graphics without the need for advanced design skills.

For graduate students working on dissertations, Canva provides an array of options to create layouts for posters or presentations, often required for thesis defenses or academic conferences.

The tool’s drag-and-drop feature simplifies the process of designing these materials, making it accessible even for those with limited graphic design experience.

Zotero offers robust support for various citation formats. Whether it’s:

• Chen Xi "Will use Wordvice again" Wordvice saved my master's thesis! I was stressed out because I thought I couldn't get everything done before my deadline, but my editor was so fast and their comments guided me really well through the last phase of polishing my writing. It sounds much more academic now, and I learned a lot from the feedback my editor gave me. I will definitely use Wordvice again for my dissertation!
• Ronald Yates "Best dissertation editor EVER!" I submitted my dissertation to Wordvice before handing it in, and my editor Carla G. did such an amazing job - it was much more helpful than I had expected! She was very thorough and left many detailed suggestions in the manuscript that helped me immensely with organizing and strengthening my arguments. I got my dissertation back on time and felt very self-assured when I finally handed it in. Thank you for your very professional help.

Check Your Dissertation or Thesis for Free with PerfectIt

29 March, 2023

If you're a student writing your thesis or dissertation, then you're probably working on the most important document that you've ever written. Whether it's a bachelor's, master's or doctoral dissertation, one document represents the culmination of thousands of hours of studying and research. It's the document that your degree depends on, so it's crucial that your words make the best impression. Don't let your reader be distracted by small mistakes that can easily be prevented by checking your document for free with PerfectIt .

Mistakes to Look For

Every kind of mistake matters. But once your dissertation is factually correct, it's important to think about the words you've written and how they present your ideas. Spelling and grammar make a difference, and by the time you've written your dissertation, you doubtlessly realize that proofreading is important. But did you know that there are lots of other mistakes, such as inconsistencies, that can slip past spelling and grammar checkers?

Each error, no matter how small, is a mental barrier that affects how your text is understood. And readers may judge you based on these errors, rather than on the content of your work. From Fortune 500 companies to freelance editors and academic researchers, PerfectIt is the software that professionals use to check their text. Below are some of the errors that PerfectIt will help you find.

“Running PerfectIt is our final step before returning a manuscript to the author. For editing dissertations and journal articles, PerfectIt is an indispensable tool.”  — David Levy, Editor-in-Chief,  AcademicWord

Hyphenation Inconsistencies

If you hyphenate a word in one place, you must remember to hyphenate it the next time it appears. For example, "e-mail" shouldn't appear in the same document as "email". But be careful – there are some cases in which phrases take a hyphen in one place but not in others. In particular, compound adjectives are hyphenated before a noun, but the same words may appear elsewhere without a hyphen. For instance, the phrase "shares are a long-term investment" should have a hyphen; however, "shares are a good investment in the long term" does not have a hyphen.

Capitalization Inconsistencies

Inconsistencies in capitalization are a common problem in long texts. Words like "Government", "Committee", "State" and "Report" are among the most frequent to end up in lowercase in some places but capitals in others. However, you must be careful because, in some instances, that can be correct. For example, these words may be capitalized when they are used as a substitute for a proper name, but should appear in lowercase when they refer in a more general way to governments, committees, states or reports.

Title Case Inconsistencies

In a dissertation, headings and subheadings are a great way to organize information for your reader. But have you capitalized your headings consistently? There are three common distinctions for title case. These are shown in Figure 1.

No matter which case you use, you must be consistent. Each heading must have the same case as every other heading at that level. Titles are designed to stand out from the text, so any inconsistency in them will stand out to your reader.

Abbreviation Definitions

Most dissertations will include some abbreviations. For example, it's common to write the abbreviation "SMEs" instead of writing out "small and medium enterprises". However, your dissertation may be read by an external examiner who isn't familiar with the abbreviations used in your research. So it's important to define every abbreviation the first time it appears. Then you should make sure it isn't accidentally defined again elsewhere in the text or written out in full after you've defined it.

Finding Mistakes Faster

The problem with checking hyphenation, capitalization, title case and abbreviations is that it's time-consuming and tedious, especially in long documents such as dissertations. If you're doing it manually, each hyphenated and capitalized phrase needs to be checked. Each abbreviation needs to be found and every heading needs to be considered. You may need to read through your dissertation several times to ensure that the usage on the fourth page is the same as the usage on the thirtieth. But you can do all of that quickly, easily and more accurately by using PerfectIt.

PerfectIt scans an entire document in seconds. It compares every hyphenated phrase to every non-hyphenated phrase, every capitalized word to every lowercase word, and every heading to every other heading. PerfectIt checks every abbreviation, and it can automatically generate a table of abbreviations to include in your dissertation. PerfectIt takes you through each potential inconsistency so that you can decide which usage is correct. It's the best way to ensure your dissertation is free of consistency errors.

Checking for Free

If you're writing a thesis or dissertation, you only need to use PerfectIt once. And a fully functioning version of PerfectIt is free for 14 days (for Mac or PC). So after you've proofread your dissertation, run PerfectIt for free. PerfectIt will quickly help you find any remaining errors.

During PerfectIt's free trial, you won't be asked to supply any credit card information. All we ask is that you remember that PerfectIt helped you. We know that today's dissertation writers are tomorrow's top graduate recruits, and that you'll be going into great jobs. We hope that you'll recommend PerfectIt to your future employers and colleagues.

Professional Online Dissertation & Thesis Editor

• ✓ It helps you find and fix grammar and spelling errors in your writing fast than manual reading
• ✓ It points issues with poor word usage, syntax, and jargon to help you create content that is easy to understand

• ✓ Helps ensure that there is a logical flow of ideas from one paragraph to another
• ✓ Helps to check sections to determine if they have been formatted well
• ✓ It helps fix missing punctuations and extra spacing between sentences and words in a sentence

Thesis Editing: Comprehensive Guide on How to Polish Your Thesis

With the help of a dissertation editor, there are several things that you should do to ensure that your thesis stands out from the rest. Here are a few of them.

Quick checklist :

• ✓ Ensure that you have answered the question you posted on the statement
• ✓ Reread and check that you have followed all the guidelines
• ✓ Check that the essay has all the necessary components (list of bibliography, introduction, conclusion, and topic headlines)
• ✓ All ideas are sound and supported by credible evidence
• ✓ You have expressed all the ideas well, without confusion
• ✓ Ensure that all your sentences are grammatically correct and complete.
• ✓ Ensure that paragraphs are well ordered so that there is a logical flow of ideas
• ✓ Check the sentence length. Your sentences should not be too long (75% of all sentences should be 20 words or less). Similarly, your paragraphs should be an appropriate length.

A good thesis paper proofreader can help you edit most of these issues quite fast. Take your time and reread your paper at least twice before submitting it.

Things to Keep in Mind While Doing Thesis Evaluation

During the thesis evaluation stage, there are various areas that you need to check to ensure that your work is submitted error-free, easy to understand, and having met your goal. Read on to find out some of the salient areas:

• ✓ The clarity of explanation. You have to ensure that whoever reads your thesis will understand it without rereading sections of the paper.
• ✓ Use of tenses, i.e., past and present tense, as well as active and passive voice. Always keep the passive voice to the minimum and past tense when needed. This helps improve readability and enhance comprehension.
• ✓ Adherence to your research question, title, and plans. It is easy to diverge from your goal at some point when preparing your document. Check if each chapter meets the goal for which you wrote it.
• ✓ When students ask, “What is the other most important thing when I edit my thesis?” We normally tell them it is the style. The tonality of the work, such as negative, positive, neutral, or historical, forms the basis for the thinking in the mind of the reader. Therefore, you need to ensure that you have an appropriate style for the work.
• ✓ Citations should also be made right. This includes paraphrases, ideas, and quotes that you got from other sources. Otherwise, there is a high chance you are going to have plagiarism detected in your papers. A good plagiarism checker can pick any work that was not properly cited.

Check Essays Fast with Ginger Software

You’ve selected a topic, constructed an outline, written your thesis statement, and completed your first draft. Don’t let your efforts go to waste. With Ginger Software’s Essay Checker, you’ll be the only one to see those little mistakes and perhaps even those glaring errors peppering your paper. The tedious task of checking an essay once had to be done by hand – and proofreading sometimes added hours of work to large projects. Where writers once had to rely on peers or editors to spot and correct mistakes, Essay Checker has taken over. Better yet, this innovative online paper checker does what other free essay corrector programs can’t do: Not only does it flag errors so you can learn from your mistakes, it automatically corrects all spelling and grammar issues at lightning speed.

Stop Wasting Time and Effort Checking Papers

You have a heavy workload, and the last thing you need to do is waste time staring at an essay you’ve just spent hours writing. Proofreading your own work – especially when you’re tired – allows you to find a few mistakes, but some errors inevitably go unnoticed no matter how much time you spend re-reading what you’ve just written. The Ginger Essay Checker lightens your workload by completely eliminating the need for hours of tedious self-review. With Ginger’s groundbreaking Essay Checker, a vast array of grammar mistakes and spelling errors are detected and corrected with unmatched accuracy. While most online paper checker tools claiming to correct essays simply flag mistakes and sometimes make suggestions for fixing them, Essay Checker goes above and beyond, picking up on such issues as tense usage errors, singular vs. plural errors, and more. Even the most sophisticated sentence structures are checked with accuracy, ensuring no mistake is overlooked even though all you’ve done is made a single click.

Essay Checker Paves the Way to Writing Success

Writing has always been important, and accuracy has always been sought after. Getting your spelling, grammar, and syntax right matters, whether your audience is online or off. Error-free writing is a vital skill in the academic world, and it’s just as important for conducting business. Casual bloggers need to maintain credibility with their audiences, and professional writers burn out fast when faced with mounds of work to proofread. Make sure your message is conveyed with clarity by checking your work before submitting it to readers – no matter who they are.

Checking essays has never been easier. With Ginger Essay Checker, you’ll save time, boost productivity, and make the right impression.

Professional Thesis Tester For Students Online

As a student in college or any other institution of higher learning, thesis papers and dissertations form a major part of your curriculum. With that said, however, writing a thesis paper or a dissertation takes much more than identifying a problem, choosing a unique topic, collecting data, collating the data, and coming up with a conclusion. You need to clearly express your ideas and insights using good grammar, proper punctuation, and accurate spelling. Needless to say, your work needs to be 100% unique and free from any plagiarism.

Combined, all these writing components can overwhelm even the most English-proficient student, translating into lower grades. Luckily for you, our online thesis tester can help you deliver the perfect thesis paper or dissertation.

Unlike the manual proofreading process, our thesis checker free crawls through texts, automatically detects all writing-related mistakes, and offers the most-appropriate suggestion. What’s more, it features a comprehensive plagiarism checker for thesis, letting you catch accidental plagiarism before submitting your papers.

Common Mistakes When Writing Thesis Papers and Dissertations

As a student, there are many potential mistakes that you can make when writing your thesis paper or dissertation. Making these mistakes not only affects your academic career but could also lead to a much bigger problem of missing out on your graduation. Whilst the writing process is frustrating, learning about the potential pitfalls may ease some of your stress. 

In this section, we are going to look at the list of the most common mistakes that students make when composing their thesis papers and dissertations.

Choosing the wrong thesis/dissertation topic

One of the biggest mistakes that students make when writing their thesis papers and dissertations is choosing the wrong topic. Not only does this weaken the entire plot of the thesis but also addresses the wrong problem. When picking up a topic for your papers, ensure you follow the following points:

• Conduct proper background research.
• Conceptualize various concepts. If the concept of your paper doesn’t interest you, chances are you’ll find the writing process boring.
• Phrase your topic in the form of a research question.
• Experiment with different initial approaches to your topic and establish its impact on the different aspects of academics and society.

Writing a weak thesis/dissertation statement

On top of choosing a topic and developing the research question, you need to create a strong thesis statement for your paper. A poorly written thesis statement can turn off the readers, preventing them from going through the entire paper.

A strong thesis statement should be short, precise, bold, and straight to the point. The statement must be reliable and attractive. Here are some things to keep in mind when writing your thesis/dissertation statement;

• Understand, internalize, and analyze your topic.
• Your thesis/dissertation statement must give pointers for further discussion.
• Avoid grammatical, spelling, and punctuation errors in your statement.
• Avoid writing anything that isn’t backed by concrete evidence or references.

Disconnect between thesis/dissertation statement and written information

Successful thesis papers and dissertations try hard to make a logical connection between the statement and the supporting information. Unfortunately, many students fail to make this connection due to poor research and limited brainstorming.

To fix this problem, you need to research more about supporting ideas or relevant information to support your main ideas. These supporting statements must come from relevant resources, be properly synchronized, and cite the sources from which they were sourced.

Academic integrity violation

Integrity is one of the fundamental pillars of academic writing, and violating it is not entertained when preparing a thesis paper or dissertation. Here are some instances of academic integrity violations;

• Violating university guidelines.
• Plagiarizing content i.e using content from other sources without referencing the source or giving credit to the author. More than often, plagiarism is accidental rather than intentional.
• False information. Making false statements or claims is not acceptable in academic writing.

Failing to proofread and edit

Editing and proofreading are critical components of thesis/dissertation writing. Silly spelling, grammar, and punctuation mistakes can compromise the quality of your paper and even lead to lower grades. While at it, you need to ensure that your papers are properly formatted and referenced.

Whilst it’s possible to hire an experienced editor to streamline your work, their services don’t come cheap. Still, you need to engage in the back and forth with the editor to ensure they’re making the necessary changes. 

Luckily for you, our free thesis checker can help make all the necessary grammar, spelling, punctuation, and sentence construction changes. And with the thesis plagiarism checker online tool, you can catch accidental plagiarism in your work.

Opinion: America must lead to keep arc of history moving in a positive direction

Is the arc of history bending in a good direction? Specifically, is it bending in a direction that brings down evil and elevates good? Human nature has not changed and has ever and always been capable of evil. This means that throughout human history, evil, damaging and destructive events have taken place. Nevertheless, many beautiful and uplifting events have also taken place. But has the overall arc been toward a better world?

My question here regards world history, not individuals or even groups of individuals. Important evidence for the overall good direction of the arc of history is the emergence of democracy with its rights and freedoms as a system of government, something our barbarian ancestors never knew. In 1992, the scholar Francis Fukuyama published the book, "The End of History and the Last Man." A thesis of his book was that liberal democracy had conquered the rival ideologies like hereditary monarchy, fascism and communism. The recognition of the equality and the dignity of all people had won out. Later, he modified his judgement because oppressions continue internationally and within nations. Even though the desire for equality through democracy is still a powerful ideal in the world, many people, even in our American democracy, are being challenged and influenced by forces favoring autocracy and opposed to democracy. Authoritarianism is making an appeal to people, even in our democracy.  

Let us agree that the founders of the American government deliberately adopted a democratic system of government. However, we know America has not followed a smooth arc in our democracy, seen in slavery followed by various discriminations in Reconstruction, and then Jim Crow laws accompanied by lynchings and other physical oppressions. One underlying hindrance, which has long been recognized by many, is our basic flawed human nature. James Madison and others among our founders recognized the frailty of human nature and the failure of human beings to live up to what they know is best. Ghandi and Martin Luther King Jr. saw that. They led movements that extended the arc of history toward liberation and greater justice for many.

Because the founders agreed with Madison in the view of human frailty, important checks were written into our American democratic government to help it avoid misuse of power. These checks and balances are represented in the three branches of our government, including the judicial system established to enforce conformity to the Constitution. In addition, elections give American citizens the ability to choose people who have authority over them. Added to this is the fact that freedoms of speech, press and assembly give transparency to the character and fitness of the candidates for the many offices.

Despite the recognition of the equality of all people and the many checks established to stop the misuse of power, democracies cannot escape the fact that not everybody is treated justly and some people abuse power. The arc of a continuously improving democracy in which liberty and justice are increasingly fulfilled is not smooth. We see even religious people allying themselves with authoritarian forces that are with Donald Trump. Authoritarianism is a dark cloud on our future. We must disperse it with the light of truth and continue to build institutions that protect health and enrich life, especially for those who lack power and opportunity to make their own and their children’s lives better.

Today, we need the same courage shown by the “greatest generation” of World War II and by the civil rights marchers during the struggle for justice and voting rights to keep the arc of our history and the larger history of the world bending toward a better future. The arc of our history bends toward a better world when we are allied with people of other democracies. We see people in other lands, living under authoritarians, yearning for freedoms and rights that we experience. We see them daily on television without food and decent housing and suffering from war. If we want the arc of history to continue moving in a positive direction, America must lead in furthering the cause of justice, freedom and human rights at home and throughout the world.
