Most PhD students and researchers are told they need to figure it out on their own🤫
Supervisors aren't known for giving specific guidelines or templates for writing a paper or a thesis🙊
So you end up trying to get your writing right through trial and error😓
Which of course, is very time-consuming and frustrating🤯
Not to mention that it leads to more negative feedback and rejected papers.
And a proven template or blueprint can be a real lifesaver:
Writing without a proven template to follow is like trying to cross a dense forest without a map or GPS.
A template gives you a proven route to get out of the forest fast.
It gives you the right model to base your writing on👌
It follows a proven structure, so your chances of positive feedback and reviews are much higher.
It also saves you a ton of time and effort💪
That's why we give all our clients templates and blueprints for each part of their thesis or paper.
Want lifesaving templates?

In case you're wondering, the templates work in 99% of the fields.
We've refined and adapted them with 460+ researchers and PhD students💯
To your success🥂
Struggling with writing the introduction to your journal paper?
I've got good news for you🤸♂️
There's a proven structure you can follow👣
Regardless of the field you're in.
And regardless of what type of paper you're writing✍️
99% of all introductions to journal papers (aside from argument-driven papers in arts and humanities) follow this structure:
✳️ Importance of the topic and definition of key concepts:
This is usually the very first paragraph.
In a nutshell, you show why your topic is important and worth investigating.
The importance can be for your discipline or for society in general, depending what you're studying.
And then you define the key concept.
Either in that same paragraph or in the following one.
✳️ Brief literature review
While some papers might have a separate literature review section, all papers will have a brief review of the relevant literature in the introduction.
This can range from a paragraph to 2-3 paragraphs😊
What you need to do here is briefly review the key topics or themes from the literature.
In order to do it effectively, always keep the research gap and aim in mind.
The literature you review should lead to the gap, which then leads to the aim.
This is by the way how you tell a coherent story.
✳️ Research gap
This is the key to making your research novel and thus publishable in top journals.
It's the justification for your aim.
You need to show us where there is a lack of research.
✔️ Or where past research disagrees on an issue.
✔️ Or limitations of previous studies.
✔️ Or preferably a combination of the above.
✳️ Research aim
This is where you tell us what your study is about.
This can be done either as an aim, a question, or a hypothesis.
Follow this overall structure, and you will tell a coherent story in your paper.
Your chances of getting your paper into high-impact journals will also be much higher.
Not to mention that it will save you a ton of time being stuck with writing.
If you need additional support writing papers, let's talk.

How long has it taken you to find the research gap?🤷♂️
If you're like a lot of researchers or PhD students, this process can take months🤨
Months of reading the literature🤯
Months of figuring out:
❇️ what hasn't been done yet
❇️ what limitations previous studies have
❇️ where previous research disagrees.
Synthesizing 🔄 that information from dozens of studies can be very difficult.
Fortunately, AI 🤖 can massively speed up this manual process.
In fact, I'm completely blown away by this new AI tool 🙀
Because it can help you find your research gap in one day🤩
Don't believe me?🤷♂️
Watch the video 👉: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYoEx...
Here are a couple of key insights you'll learn from the video:
✅ Four types of research gaps and how to find them quickly
✅ Using AI to 10x your reading
✅ How to get limitations of 20+ previous studies in less than a minute
✅ How to find a lack of research with AI in just a day
Key take-away: you'll have your research gap by the end of the day🥳
This process will work for any field.
And it's also totally ethical 👍
It won't lead to plagiarism👌

Do you know what most innovative and successful people have in common?🤔
They fail more than the average you and me🙈
Take Edison, for example.
According to the records he kept himself, he failed 2774 times before he invented the lightbulb 🤫
Another example: Koby Bryant missed more shots than any other player in NBA history🙊
However, he also won 5 championships and is considered one of the greatest basketball players of all time😊
What does this have to do with writing papers?🤔
Well, you will have to fail multiple times before you succeed🎭
And you need to see failure as a positive sign of learning.
If you're scared of failing, you will never succeed😶
You'll be just too afraid to push your limits, fail, and learn🧗♀️
See mistakes or failures as experiments in the lab🔬
If, as a scientist, you aren't failing, then you'll never discover anything👌
If, as a research writer, you aren't making mistakes with your writing, you're standing still.
So, what I would urge you to do this week is to fail at least once🙄
Try doing something that's beyond your current abilities💪
Try writing something difficult.
Fail.
And then learn from it🤩
That's how you make progress and become great🎊
The crucial part here is getting feedback in time, so that you know how to correct your mistakes😊
Otherwise, you might continue failing in the foreseeable future.

What is your work plan for tomorrow?🙂
What about next week?🤔
When I ask these questions to researchers or PhD students, I am usually surprised by two things:
✴️ how vague it is
✴️ usually, there is no writing planned.
However, if you want to be successful as a researcher or a PhD student, you need to plan your days, weeks, months, and years in detail 😶
Otherwise, writing will be postponed forever.
And submitting your thesis or papers will become a stressful race against time.
One of the best ways to plan and prioritize is to think about second and third order consequences.
Most of us, when making decisions, usually only consider first order consequences.
Like if I go to the gym 🏋️today, I'll get wet because it's raining. So let's stay at home🏡.
As a result, we tend to choose to do things that have pleasant first order consequences.
But the thing is that most actions that lead toward our goals have unpleasant first order consequences.
So, next time you're hesitating about planning your day and what to do, consider the second—and third-order consequences.
Like speaking to us 1:1 academicenglishnow.com/schedule
Here are some second and third order consequences:
✅ understanding the root cause of your problems
✅ clarity on your goals
✅ action plan to achieve your goals
