$30-250 USD

Paid on delivery
I have 2 book chapters in pre-publication, PDF files. They are in American English. The task is to read them carefully and correct spelling errors, grammatical errors, punctuation errors, and other errors--and to indicate anything that looks weird or doesn't make sense. The corrections or suggestions are to be marked on the PDF files by using any of the following functions: "Add sticky note", "Insert text at cursor", "Add note to text" or "Add note to replace text". Probably about 6 hours of work.

"Hello, Having been an English teacher at a University, I understand how important it is for immaculate proofreading, especially for our students who are submitting Masters and PHD dissertations. Perfect grammar skills and rewording sentences, is a necessary and important skill that I have honed after years of experience in academia. Often when doing proofreading, second language speakers, make basic mistakes as they are not native speakers. I am a specialist in this field. As a meticulous English teacher, teaching different skills, including grammatical structures, I would be able to spot mistakes and rewrite where and when necessary. The use of specific vocabulary comes with experience and I have gained that over many years of doing this specific craft. Regards"

"Hello, I offer any kind of editing/rewriting/proofreading and complete them expertly ready within short time. I will ensure a plagiarism free article. Plagiarism is generally grounds for failure of a course and can lead to dismissal from college; in this case it should be avoided or prohibited. You must always have a reference page as well as in-text citations to avoid plagiarism. The Reference Page immediately follows the text of the paper. Items on the reference page are listed alphabetically. If you use another person's idea or paraphrase another person's words, be sure to use your own language and style of writing - don't simply rearrange the words. The scope of my services also extends further to detailed descriptions and correction of grammatical errors. Regards "

As a working freelance writer for many years now, I have become a very reliable and experienced editor. Editing, rewriting and proofreading is a very important part of the writing process, and it must be done with strict ease. An editor must catch any and all grammatical, spelling, structure and formatting errors in a piece of writing. They must be consistent, creative, patient, negotiable, and very detail oriented. This task is highly significant in completing any piece of writing, which qualifies me to edit just about anything you may need proofread or rewritten. With great understanding and experience of editing, I will enhance your work to its full potential, ensuring you are satisfied and the work is more than presentable.
