TR Proofreading

Specialist proofreading services to secondary and tertiary students.

Let me check the spelling, grammar, punctuation and syntax of your;

  • Term essays and assignments
  • Dissertations and theses
  • Literature reviews
  • Ethics applications
  • Research proposals
  • Referencing formats and in-text citations

I welcome work from students for whom English is a second language.

About me

I have a Bachelor of Arts (English major) from Auckland University, a Post-Graduate Diploma in Social Policy and Social Work and an Applied Masters Degree in Social Work / Qualitative Research from Massey University.

I have been employed as a researcher and report writer for a range of public and private sector agencies both on a salaried and contract basis for more than 20 years.  Between government contracts I was self employed as a freelance journalist and advertising copywriter for a variety of print media and web applications.

What I don't do

My services are restricted to proofreading and editing documents in plain English and do not extend to checking the accuracy of technical terminology, tables, mathematical formulae, calculations or any conclusions you have drawn.  I am not a de-facto academic supervisor and cannot advise on content.  If you send me poorly written, factually inaccurate text, I can only return well written, factually inaccurate text.

How it works

E-mail me the document

Send  me a copy of your draft document in Word format and I will edit the piece using tracked changes so you can see my editing alongside your original text.

Flexible turnaround times

Please contact to discuss your requirements.

Pricing

Approximately 1 cent per word.

Email a 500 word sample along with the total word count.  I will correct that for free which will provide a basis for a firm quote and enable you to assess my work.
