$10-30 USD

Paid on delivery
I need to edit casual informal English often. Very often. Being grammatically correct is not enough. It should "sound" like as if I am a native English speaker. The more it sounds like I am a native English speaker, the better. Tell me your rates when posting a bid. I promise this will be a fun job.

Casual informal English? Are you planning for another English test? What was your final grade for the test you took last time. Regards, Marli

Judging from my 100% English Exam Badge, you can be sure that I will edit your content with 100% accuracy in terms of grammar, spelling, punctuation, and flow. I am a Broadcast Communication student from University of the Philippines, the top university in our country. Because of my course, I'm experienced when it comes to written works. Once hired, I could give you my contact so you could check on my progress from time to time and I could clarify all instructions as to accomplish the work perfectly. The milestone I am asking from you is also just a fair deal for the both of us. I am looking forward to work with you. I hope you could consider my proposal and work with me in your several projects in the future

I am an experienced writer, proofreader and copywriter. I have had over 50 articles published in one of New Zealand's biggest news websites. Check out my portfolio for samples of my website copy. I write professional and engaging content, and I am a stickler for correct use of grammar and proper sentence construction. I will meet and exceed your expectations. Kris de Jong My usual rate is US$30 per 500 words, but that is for original content. Would be less for this work.

I am a native English speaker with plenty of experience proofreading/editing - please see my reviews. I charge $2 for 500 words. Below a sample of my work. Sainte Marie Island is off the north eastern coast of the main island. It is a one hour flight away from Tana. It used to be a Pirate’s haven between 1680 and 1720. It has soft wind sand secluded beaches, warm weather, and lush vegetation. It is ideal to visit at any time of the year except for February as this is the region’s cyclone season. Here one can go scuba diving. The lagoon is safe from sharks and has beautiful coral. It can be explored by both experienced scuba divers, as well as amateur snorkelers.

I would be pleased to help you in ensuring your words read as though they were written by a native English speaker. As the text in your job posting displays good English, I am prepared to offer my services to you at the rate of $0.01 per word (word count based on your original text as received by me). I live on the west coast of Canada, where our time zone is GMT-8. We can communicate via email or Skype, if needed. I have a great deal of experience in exactly the type of work you are asking for and can send you samples of my work. I edit and proof read only using Microsoft Word, and do not use spell check or grammar check software of any kind. None of them is good enough. Best regards, Gerry

I feel I could edit your English quite well as I am experienced in writing in a conversational tone so it doesn't sound robotic if that makes sense. My bid is $25. If you could contact me for further information to find out more, It would be greatly appreciated. I hope you find what you're looking for in hiring but I would love the opportunity to work with you.

Greetings! I am a native English editor and proofreader. I can make your written word sound as native as my own. I will base my rates on a $10 per hour scale, which although not cheap, will give you good value in terms of quality, efficiency, and reliability. Based upon the fairly high quality of English in your project description, I will happily complete your ongoing projects at a flat rate of $1 per 100 words. You will learn to trust my work, but only if you first award this project to me. Cheers, Robert Brady

15 $ is my minimum rate and I'm from Canada so I think I can do this job pretty well. It will be casual and grammatically correct, and It will also sound like you are a native English speaker.
