A study coach helps you regain control of your studies. At Topscriptie, our coaches support students at a university of applied sciences (HBO) or a university (WO) with planning, procrastination, concentration, exam stress and thesis writing. You get personal coaching, online or on location in the Netherlands, in English or Dutch.
Topscriptie started with thesis supervision. Today, a full team of study coaches guides students with everything related to studying, from planning to fear of failure, even when no thesis is involved. Whether you struggle with planning, procrastination, motivation, concentration, exam stress or a thesis, you get personal coaching that fits your program and your situation. We offer study coaching for HBO students (universities of applied sciences) and WO students (research universities), online and on location.
Do you want to know how we can help you?
A study coach, also known as an academic coach, helps you study more effectively and more independently. Together, you look at what goes wrong and, more importantly, at what you need to move forward.

The coaching is personal. You do not follow a standard program. Your coach builds an approach around your studies, your level and your question, and takes your personal circumstances, attention span and study preferences into account. Meet two of our study coaches: Eva Haro, thesis supervisor and study coach, and Mirjam de Winter.
Study coaching at Topscriptie starts with a free intake conversation without obligation. Together, we map out where you get stuck and what you need to regain control of your studies. Then we match you with a coach who fits your program and situation.
After the intake, you follow four to six sessions of 45 to 60 minutes. In the first session, you set concrete goals, such as keeping a fixed planning or reducing exam stress. In the next sessions, you practice and discuss with your coach what worked. Between sessions, you reach your coach via WhatsApp or email. Afterwards, you and your study coach evaluate your goals and decide on a follow up, for example for your thesis.
Bonus: as a client, you can follow our four week online training “Studying and Graduating with Less Stress and More Confidence” (worth €29) for just €1.
