Academic proofreading and copy-editing

Writing an essay, dissertation, research paper or journal article?
If you’re a student, researcher or academic author, I’ll make sure your writing is clear and consistent.
I’ve particular experience supporting students and academics with
  • English as a second, additional or foreign language (ESL, EAL and EFL)
  • learning issues, such as dyslexia
So, if this includes you, I especially look forward to working with you.

Supporting your studies and research

Whichever level of course you’re studying (GCSE, A-level, NVQ, first degree, master’s or PhD), I’ll review your work to check
  • spelling, grammar and punctuation
  • correct and consistent formatting of citations, references and bibliography
  • layout and presentation​
For journal articles, I’ll also check compliance with your publication’s standards and house style.

​Code of practice

For ethical reasons, I’ll always work within your course guidelines. I’m obviously not allowed to rewrite your work, check facts or give academic feedback. You’ll also need to check with your place of study that working with a professional proofreader is acceptable.

My academic code of practice has more details.

​Educational and training resources

Are you an education or training provider? With my extensive experience as an editor of distance learning materials, I can help you develop high quality resources appropriate for your learners, from NVQ to degree level. Please contact me to discuss your requirements.
