Hello. I need someone to edit and proofread a website for a university writing center. It is fairly quick ( 2,533 words total for 7 word documents) but the catch is that I need it by Sunday Oct. 9 12midnight US Eastern time . I need someone who has a good grasp of grammar, punctuation, syntax, usage, and word choice. The other issue is style: it is for a writing center so the style is formal but should be friendly as it is for students (albeit graduate students). I want to make it as readable as possible. I can negotiate on the price as it is a rush job. Thanks! Rebecca

I registered in February last year and have 132 reviews, all positive. English is my first language and my skills include technical writing, editing, proofreading, and transcribing. One of my jobs via Freelancer was editing content for a website for students applying for university courses. I have also edited website content for several other sites. At the beginning of this year I took on a role as the copy editor for The International Journal of Wellbeing, an online journal, and several months ago I began as the copy editor for the Blind Foundation of New Zealand. One of my earlier projects with Freelancer was to edit a 65,000-word science fiction novel, and the client was so pleased with my work that he commended me to Freelancer, and an article about me was published by Freelancer. For two years I was a copy editor for Elsevier Science Publishers in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, rewriting text by authors who were not native English speakers. I have worked with individual clients to bring more than 20 books to publication and five of these clients have rehired me to work on further books. Having been a teacher of English in high school for four years, I have spent many hours making corrections and suggestions for students' essays. For an additional two years I was a teacher of English as a second language.

I am an English teacher, with a Master of Applied Linguistics. I am highly skilled in all areas of English spelling, grammar and vocabulary, and as a native speaker, will be able to ensure fluency and accuracy throughout your website. You will notice that I have successfully edited a number of US texts, and have an excellent reputation on this site for my proofreading and editing services. I would prefer to edit the website text by copying and pasting into Microsoft Word, and then using the 'track changes' feature, however, I am flexible, so any other method you would like me to use is fine. You can expect to receive your completed work by the end of today (it's already Sunday here).
