Hello!
My name is Mary, and I'm a native American English speaker with razor-sharp listening skills and fast, accurate typing capabilities. I'm a writer myself, and I also work full-time with immigrant and refugee clients of varying English capacities (from pre-literate to multi-degreed professionals) on a daily basis, where I "transcribe" their words, work, and life stories into readable, useable, and professional employment documents (especially resumes), so I'm used to listening for and recording linguistic particularities regularly. I have a laptop, quick turnaround, a good Internet connection, and I'm looking for a steady supplemental job opportunity that ideally includes language/ communication aspects, so I believe this transcription job would be just as wonderful of an opportunity for me, as my skills would be for your needs.
Should we decide to work together, I would love to have a preliminary conversation that better outlines your transcription needs, covering such aspects as whether you're looking for literal transcription (including conversational fillers such as "umm," "you know, " etc., or whether you want the audio cleaned up for basic grammatical accuracy's sake). Regardless, I'm very open to this as a continuing partnership, should we find we're a good fit for each other professionally.
I look forward to your reply at your earliest convenience, thank you very much for your time, and I'll talk to you soon.
Sincerely,
Mary
