I have used JP Academic Services for over 5 years. I have called upon JP Academic Services on numerous occasions having worked on national and international projects where there was a need for transcribing, proof reading and editing and I have found her to be very competitively costed and easy to work with. In terms of quality, her work is extremely accurate and second to none and she is very organised, quick and prompt with responses to orders and work outputs, and she is a is great communicator.

During the course of our several research projects in the areas of welfare and disability we have used interviews as our primary research method, collecting a great deal of data. Julia has played a strong role in helping us to manage this data, not least because she is a highly organized and reliable transcriber. Julia is fast, skillful and accurate in transcribing, but more than this, she brings an intelligent and knowledgeable approach that makes her a valued colleague.

Julia has provided me with fantastic support in transcribing my interviews. She has always returned the work on time even before mutually agreed timescales. The provided transcripts have been always accurate, in the highest quality which exceeded my expectation. Her support has saved me a considerable time. My research is a pure qualitative research and without her help I would not be able to do my analysis and finish the research within the timescale. I would definitely recommend her professional and reliable service to anyone needing good quality audio transcriptions.

Julia helped to proofread my dissertation and gave many valuable suggestions. As a foreign student, writing is a hard work. It is easy for me to make a lot of grammar mistakes during writing. After my roommate’s recommendation, I contacted Julia to help me revise my dissertation. She is very responsible and always replies to me very quickly. She revised my work carefully and explained to me a lot of things I should take notice of. Also, Julia is very experienced and offers me a lot of suggestions. I am very satisfied with her service.

I was struggling to transcribe the qualitative interviews I had done for my PhD project and was recommended JP Academic Services. I contacted Julia who immediately put me at ease about the whole process, and transcribed in a few weeks what I think what would have taken me years! The transcripts are of excellent quality and the communication from Julia is brilliant. I have already recommended Julia’s services to fellow researchers, and will continue to do so in future.
