I can proofread essays, theses and dissertations on humanities and social science topics for undergraduate and postgraduate students. In the first instance, please contact me with the following information:

​

• title or subject area of your work

• approximate word count

• submission deadline

• when your work will be available for proofreading

 

If I think I can help you, I will ask for a representative sample of your document (between 500 and 1000 words) and will use it to work out my quote for you. This will be shown as cost per 1000 words.

​

My proofreading service for students includes:

​

• checking your document adheres to a style guide, where available

• correcting spelling, grammar and punctuation

• making minor amendments to wording to improve clarity or break up long sentences

• correcting or highlighting inconsistencies 

• checking numerical sequencing of headings and figures

 

I cannot make any correction or suggestion which impacts the argument or structure of your work.

I prefer to work in Word using Track Changes. I can also work on PDFs using highlighting and comments, but that takes longer and it’s more difficult for you to incorporate my corrections.
