Editing and Proofreading

Revision and editing is best done with the author present, receiving advanced writing lessons along the way, at least for the first paper.

For work without the author present, I do a close reading with revisions for grammar, logic, and style. Then, I do a second pass for proofreading, clarity, cohesion, and effect.

I specialize in proofreading and editing research reporting, particularly in the fields of

  • Computer Science and Engineering (e.g., Artificial Intelligence, Big Data Mining, Machine Learning, Offshore Engineering)
  • Business and Technology (e.g., Finance, Fuel Distribution, Gas and Oil Systems, Marketing, Statistics, and Economics)
  • Education and Arts (e.g., Curriculum Design, Dramaturgy, Linguistics, German, French, Medieval History)
  • Medicine and Biology (e.g., Cardiology, Genomic indexing, Horticulture, Paleontology, Public and Mental Health)
  • International Law (e.g., Contracts, Constitutional Law, Free Speech, Surveillance)

I provide speedy, professionally detailed assistance with writing, revision, proofreading, and editing:

  • Academic class papers and dissertations
  • Classroom lectures and curriculum
  • Journal or magazine articles (including photo captions)
  • Manuals or instructional documentation
  • Newsletters (including design and layout)
  • Personal statements for applications
  • Press releases
  • Promotional materials
  • Scientific papers
  • Scripts for videos and live presentations
  • SOPs and technical documentation
  • Translations (English final drafts from any language and all stages of German to English)
