/hrAbout this service
Summary
I am a scholar with over 10 years of experience, offering copy editing and proofreading services for academic colleagues and students. Whether you're working on an essay, dissertation, thesis, or paper, I can help you write clearly in British or American English. I can also help you apply appropriate referencing styles and editorial guidelines using various tools including LaTeX. My area of focus is empirical research involving data analysis using tools such as Python, R, and SPSS, where I have supervised and examined academic work across the bachelor, master, and doctoral levels and mentored early-career researchers.
I can typically edit 1250 words per hour, and proofread 2500 words per hour.
What's included
Revised Copy with Queries and Comments
The copy in the manuscript supplied by the client is revised using tracked changes to amend expression for clarity and grammatical correctness. At this stage, referencing styles and editorial guidelines are also applied. This is supplemented with annotations such as queries to the client and comments regarding caveats or further potential improvements.
Proofread Final Copy
Following dialogue with the client regarding any outstanding queries or further potential improvement, the final copy will be formatted and proofread.
Submission-Ready PDF
Once the client is satisfied with the proof, a submission-ready PDF document (or alternative desired format) is provided.
