One-on-one help with your research question, literature review, methods, writing and defense, for undergraduate and Master’s students. You write every word. We show you how to make it better.
For STEM, social sciences and humanities, in the tools you already use.
2.3 Social media and student wellbeing
Many studies have shown1 that social media use affects student wellbeing. This is a very important topic in today’s society.2 Smith (2019) found that heavy use predicted poorer sleep, while Lee (2021) found no link once stress was taken into account.3 Due to the fact thatBecause the results are mixed, this study focuses on first-year students.
We work the way your university’s writing center does. You write. We give feedback, ask questions and show you what to fix.
Our name has “ghost” in it, so to be clear: we never write your work for you. Paying someone to write your coursework or thesis is contract cheating. It breaks your university’s rules, can cost you your degree, and leaves you with nothing to say when examiners ask about your own work.

Research question and design
We help you turn a big interest into a focused question you can actually answer in the time you have.
For undergraduate and Master’s students
Literature review
We help you group your sources by debate, not by author, so your review argues something instead of listing summaries.
For all levels
Editing your chapters
Detailed, line-by-line feedback on your chapters so your argument is clear and your writing reads well.
For Master’s, early PhD and journal articles
Defense and viva practice
Mock questions, help with your slides and weekly check-ins, so you walk in prepared and not on your own.
For students in their final semester
Here’s how a typical dissertation goes with us, from first idea to defense. You can join at any stage.
Weeks 1–2
We read your topic, your department’s guidelines and what your supervisor expects. Together we sharpen your question and shape a proposal you can defend.
You leave with: a proposal and a plan for your methods.
Weeks 3–5
We build search queries for the right databases and a matrix that maps the main debates, the competing theories and the gap your project fills.
You leave with: a literature matrix and a chapter outline.
Weeks 6–8
We go through your design, sampling, interview questions or tests, and look for weak spots before your examiners do.
You leave with: a checked methods chapter and an analysis plan.
Weeks 9–12
You write in short sprints. We send back detailed comments in Track Changes or Overleaf on your argument, flow and clarity.
You leave with: a complete draft, including your discussion.
Final weeks
A 75-minute mock defense where Casper asks the questions your committee is most likely to ask. Then we tighten your slides.
You leave with: a rehearsed defense and finished slides.
The big day
Go on, throw your cap. You earned it.
No contracts. Pay for one session, one chapter or one month at a time.
$65 per hour
For one specific problem: confusing feedback, a proposal check, a paragraph you can’t get right.
$240 per chapter
A full round of feedback on one key chapter: your literature review, methods or discussion.
$420 per month
Weekly help for the whole semester, right up to your defense.
Paying for this yourself? We keep two discounted places each term for self-funded undergraduates. Mention it when you book.
“I was drowning in over 100 papers for my Master’s dissertation. Casper helped me sort them into three competing schools of thought. My advisor said the literature chapter read like doctoral work.”
“My supervisor barely replied, and I was stuck on my discussion section with a deadline coming. GhostFellow gave me the honest feedback I needed to connect my results back to the literature.”
“The mock viva made the difference. Casper spotted two weak points in my sampling that I’d missed and helped me explain them honestly. When the external examiner asked about exactly that, I had a calm answer ready.”

Yes. Universities ban contract cheating: paying someone else to write papers, invent results or produce code that you submit as your own. We give feedback on your writing, advice on your methods and one-on-one tutoring. Every word of your thesis is written by you. It’s the same kind of help a university writing center or a professional editor gives.
Your supervisor marks your work, so their view always wins. A big part of what we do is helping you make sense of vague or contradictory supervisor comments, and helping you reply politely without losing weeks.
Overleaf and LaTeX, Microsoft Word with Track Changes, Google Docs, Zotero, Mendeley and Notion. Calls happen on Google Meet or Zoom, with your document on screen.
Yes. We sign NDAs for new datasets, experimental designs and work that might be patented. Your drafts and notes are never shared, published or used to train AI models.
Yes. We advise on research design, sample size and statistical power, survey design, and how to interpret regression, ANOVA or thematic analysis in R, Python, SPSS or NVivo.
Tell us your topic and where you’re stuck. We’ll tell you honestly whether we’re the right fit.
A thesis is never really finished. At some point it just gets submitted. Let’s make sure you submit it calmly.
Thanks. Casper will read what you’re working on and email you some call times within 24 hours.
