I'm Dr Melanie Smith

I created Master Journal Article Writing after I realised the writing journal article was THE NUMBER ONE thing academic clients asked for my help with.
 
We all write journal articles. But let's be honest, we don't really enjoy this genre, even though it is critical to career success. Who wouldn't rather do one more book chapter instead? Right?

Except...all that effort, for minimum reward.
 
With a few tweaks, you could turn each one into a high quality journal paper, and get maximum reward. But there are so many unspoken rules, so many techniques that are not taught. It can be hit and miss.

So i created this programme to give you everything you need to become a master of this genre. Step by step training materials, but also, live feedback and support from me in the group coaching.

My 7 Step Framework has been refined from my own practice over years - first as an academic and then as a coach - until it delivers everything you need.

I've been coaching academic writers for 6 years...

I'm an EU Law scholar, published author of peer-reviewed papers, chapters, books, and edited collections. I've served as a consultant to the European Parliament, held a tenured Associate Professor position at Cardiff University for over 13 years, and led writing courses for faculty. With 18+ years of experience, I've contributed to research, publishing, program development, and teaching/supervision at all levels at Russell Group Universities in the UK.

I've helped thousands of academic clients to foster a better relationship with their writing, maximizing productivity while minimizing time investment.

I established Academic Coach to provide the skills, mentorship, and coaching I wish I had, utilizing cutting-edge research in writing productivity, neuroscience, and behavioral psychology.

I work with Universities and individuals across different disciplines, from High Arts to Hard Sciences, training and coaching academics across the world inside and outside institutions.

I've been where you are, and know exactly what you need to flourish
