Proofreading
What is it?
Proofreading is the final stage your work goes through, whether it is a manuscript, brochure, CV, letter, award application, website or dissertation, before it goes to print or live online.
It’s the last step in ensuring your work looks and reads as you intended.
How I can help you

Whether you've written web content, a PhD thesis, your CV, your first novel (or second), or an academic paper, I totally understand that you will want to submit it, promote it, or publish it only when it is at its finest.
To do this, I look for errors in spelling, grammar and punctuation. I hunt out the inconsistencies, as well as any layout and stylistic mistakes.
