Testimonials

“Amanda was exceptional. She helped me condense my thoughts into a logical and coherent essay. She was great at giving constructive criticism that helped me learn about writing better. She helped me understand what makes strong scientific writing and also how to improve my voice on paper. Our sessions were very productive. With Amanda, I had a schedule and a sense of my priorities which helped me get things done. She reduced the stress of the process. The Cambridge Coaching admins were also responsive and supportive throughout the process. I am going to recommend Cambridge Coaching to all my colleagues and friends.”
