What I can do for you:

• I find typos, spelling errors, punctuation and grammar issues in documents.
• I help to make your sentences easier to read.
• I help with shaping your documents into a more clear and understandable form when English is your second language.

My service covers:

• Grammar
• Use of tense
• Awkward, wordy, unclear expressions or sentence structure
• Missing or repeated words

My Rates

How I provide you with feedback:

I mainly use Microsoft Word's Track Changes feature. I also insert comments for suggestions or clarity. This is so you can easily see all changes and comments.

If you do not like Track Changes I can offer alternate methods of feedback.
