Many writers, particularly ESL writers, lack confidence in their English skills. Poor grammar and spelling can be embarassing and make you look unprofessional. I work with writers to correct their work and make sure it is in perfect, natural English and has the proper tone for their needs. I was trained by the New Zealand Institute of Business Studies and the University of Waikato. I have edited thousands of academic documents, including reports, essays, theses and journal articles. I have worked for clients all around the world, and am currently employed by a large American company that produces how-to articles. Qualifications: -I am a native English speaker, and am trained in US, UK, Australian and New Zealand English. I have considerable experience in academic writing. -I earned a diploma in proofreading, editing, and publishing -I earned a bachelor's degree in psychology, and graduated in the 98th percentile. -I am trained in Chicago, Oxford, APA, IEEE, and Harvard styles. I am happy to work with any style guide you provide me with. -I am proficient in MS Word track changes, and am happy to leave helpful comments in the margins for you, if you wish. -I am a fast worker and I am dedicated to helping my clients meet their deadlines.
