Whether it's your dissertation, thesis or a journal article, you've spent months, years even, working on it; testing and retesting, writing and re-writing, and now it's time to submit. But sometimes, in focussing on the end goal, you can lose track of the details. Spelling and grammar gets missed, repetition sneaks in, and sometimes things just don't make sense.
Proofreading your own writing is never a good idea as we all gloss over our own mistakes, that's why employing an expert academic proofreader to review your work is vital.
Academic Rates:
£18 per 1000 words read for all academic proofreading.
What to expect:
I will return your work to you with tracked changes and comments in the margin. My service includes:
Native English proofreader
Full spelling and grammar check
Sense check with sentence restructure where necessary
Check for repetition and inconsistencies
Where things don't make sense or are unclear, I will query these with you and help you to rewrite them in a more succinct way
Reference check
Helpful comments in the margin where things could be improved
Turnaround:
I will always aim to work to your deadlines, however, for larger pieces of work I do require at least two week's notice. Typically, a 50,000 word thesis will be returned to you within two weeks.
Certificate of proofreading:
Many universities now have a proofreading policy that professionals must adhere to when proofreading students' work. To confirm that I have followed your university's policy, as standard, I provide a certificate of proofreading that can be submitted with your work.
