Online Writing Consultation: German and English

You are writing a text for your studies or research—in German or in English—and would like assistance because the text does not flow smoothly or the language does not fulfill your expectations and needs?
Whether it is an essay or a handout, a bachelor’s or a master’s thesis, a dissertation or a research paper, we can help you find the right words to express your ideas aptly. You can receive support in:

  • planning and brainstorming;
  • structuring an argument, section, or text;
  • improving clarity and comprehensibility;
  • finding apt expressions;
  • checking grammar, style, and usage in a passage;
  • managing writer's block, stress, or time.

It is best to come to the consultation with specific questions about individual passages of the text. Questions that are specific to a discipline cannot be answered.

Online writing consultations are sixty-minute individual sessions on Zoom. Writing consultations for English can be carried out in person upon request.
