Institutions With Whom Dr. Smith Has Worked:

Who Is Dr. Shanell T. Smith?

I am your favorite doctoral expert.

I help doctoral students successfully navigate the various stages of their program with ease so they can not only finish faster, but finish faster without sacrificing quality.

I've been there. 

I understand the pressures that come along with the doctoral pursuit. I get the demands on your time, and the urge to take away that time from your loved ones. I've experienced the "I'm-not-built-for-this-ness" that many doctoral students feel. And I understand the anxiousness and unease that one feels when you just don't know what to do because you've never done a doctorate before. 

I am a product of great mentoring. Having earned my Ph.D. in 3 years and 9 months with 2 kids, I came away with tips, strategies, and advice that make the doctoral process not just manageable, but also enjoyable.

So I've made it my mission to share what I know with future doctors around the world.

Teaching the HOW for the WHAT that institutions require.
And after 8 years as a full-time Associate Professor, I resigned so that I could focus all of my energies on doing just that.

Over the years, doctoral students have come to me with their health deteriorating, they've lost their families due to resentment that festered, and they've struggled with so many things common to all doctoral students such as time management,
impostor syndrome, writer’s block, lack of productivity, and so on.

For this reason, I created my proven Accelerate Your Doctorate® Method. Through private and group coaching programs, I help doctoral students from start to FINISH.

There is a better, healthier way to earn a doctorate, and I am committed to teaching future doctors how to do it.
