With over 30 years’ experience in publishing and education worldwide, I am your flexible and creative wordsmith, who would not miss your deadline.
My international teaching experience gives me thorough understanding of the educational context for your language learning materials. My MA dissertation was on the factors that affect English language learners in mainstream education.
Added to this, my Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading training has honed my observational skills for your layout, house style and writer’s intention. Let me attend to any non-standard phrasing and inconsistencies in your manuscripts. I’ll cast an eagle eye over the mechanical details of your documents: punctuation, grammar and spelling, both British and American English.
I am a Spanish speaker with an international outlook.
Copyediting
Do you need me to tidy up your blog, memoir or thesis? I can sensitively re-phrase your words so that they flow more naturally and reflect your intentions.
Proofreading
Do you need me to check your spelling, grammar and punctuation? I can review your documents at short notice, improving overall readability and accuracy.
Writing
Do you need me to write your English language learning materials, in print and digital? I can write your teacher’s guides, students’ books and workbooks for all levels.
