10+ Years of Helping Psychology Students Write Better
Blackthorn Heuristics was founded in 2016 by Dr Cyril R. Latimer, while serving as an Adjunct Associate Professor in Psychology at Charles Sturt University, a position he still holds today.
Students kept raising the same problem: not enough detailed instruction in essay writing, and too little useful feedback on marked work. Having taught and marked Psychology essays across four Australian universities, Cyril knew this wasn’t unique to one institution. It came down to time pressure on markers, and markers themselves (often part-time staff or postgraduate students) sometimes lacking strong essay-writing skills of their own.
So he set up a free service where students could submit draft essays and reports for commentary. No advertising. It grew purely by word of mouth.

The free phone call alone was more useful than an hour with my tutor. I finally understood what my marker was looking for.
