English Proofreading & Copyediting by Experienced Native Speaker
Hi! I am an Australian native English speaker, 40 y.o., based in Berlin, with:
— university degrees in Law and Commerce;
— mastery of both British and American English;
— wide ranging interests including linguistics, literature, history, sociology, science, pop culture, and philosophy; and
— 10+ years experience in proofreading and editing university theses and academic articles.
WHAT I DO
I am here to help proofread and correct your written English, be it academic, business or private. Over the years, I have worked extensively with, among others, native German, Spanish, French and English speakers and have developed a good understanding of the influences from each language. My approach is not just to look at spelling and punctuation, but also the argument and flow.
So, if you're looking for someone to help you with your written English, I would love to hear from you!
Best regards,
William
