Experienced University Lecturer with PhD Offering Dissertation Coaching, Literature Review and Research Design Support for UG, MSc and PhD Students Online Across the UK

I had the pleasure of working alongside Valerie during our PhD, and she quickly became my go-to person whenever I felt stuck or needed a fresh perspective on my research. She has a remarkable ability to ask the right questions, which helped me think more critically.

One of the things I appreciated most was her ability to help me articulate my ideas more clearly. When I struggled to explain what I was trying to do, Valerie would point me in the right direction, suggesting what to look at or how to work through it.

She’s approachable, patient, and genuinely supportive, and I always found her input really valuable. I’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for help with their dissertation or research.

With a PhD and experience as a university lecturer, Dr Valerie has extensive expertise in research design, academic writing and thesis supervision.

She is thorough, approachable and tailors her support to each student’s topic and goals. Her feedback is constructive and focused on helping students achieve their best possible outcome. A truly knowledgeable and supportive coach.

I highly recommend Valerian as a knowledgeable, supportive, and dedicated tutor. I know her as a senior colleague from university, where she completed her PhD and taught as an Associate Lecturer. She has excellent academic writing, research, and teaching skills. She also supported me during my PhD work, especially with my literature review and methodology, and always gave clear, practical, and thoughtful guidance. Valerian understands how research should be planned and carried out, and she has a kind and encouraging teaching style. I am confident that students will benefit greatly from her experience and support.

I am pleased to recommend Dr Valerie Tuhaise, whom I had the privilege of supporting as her second PhD supervisor during her doctoral studies in Construction Informatics at Oxford Brookes University.

Valerie is a thoughtful, disciplined, and highly capable academic. Throughout her PhD, she showed a strong ability to understand complex ideas, organise them clearly, and communicate them in a way that others could follow. Her research on digital twins, building operations, and data interoperability required technical depth, independence, and careful thinking, and she demonstrated these qualities consistently.

What I have always appreciated about Valerie is her calm and supportive approach to learning. She is patient, approachable, and genuinely committed to helping others develop confidence in their academic work. She understands the challenges students face when working on dissertations, research projects, literature reviews, methodologies, and academic writing, and she is able to guide them with clarity and encouragement.

Valerie also brings valuable teaching and supervision experience. She is able to help students refine their ideas, structure their work, improve their writing, and think more critically about their research. She has a natural ability to make students feel supported while also encouraging them to produce work of a high academic standard.

I would confidently recommend Valerie to any student looking for a knowledgeable, patient, and dedicated dissertation coach or academic mentor. She combines academic excellence with warmth, professionalism, and a genuine desire to see students succeed.
