Hello, I understand that a copy and paste article may need to undergo several modifications for it to pass copyscape. I will modify, edit proofread and re-write the article to meet the required specifications. I will also seek to correct grammar errors and overall try to refine the English language. Regards, Garon Helton

Hello, You have just posted a project by requesting to proofread/Edit your document. A highly experienced proof reader and copy editor with a First Class Honours degree in English Language and a published author of literacy education books, you can be fully assured of my technical ability and credentials. The correct use of apostrophes, commas and grammar and those pesky spelling rules that catch everyone out might make you squirm but send your words to me and you won't believe how transformed your text will be. I completed “online continuing education certificate of course completion - Proofreading and Copyediting 101. Class Registration Number 8900117.” Few Questions regarding of your project: *How many words do you want to proofread? *Let me know when do you need it? To provide top notch quality task, I need to take up to 2-3 hours to research your topics then write. It will take around 1-2 days to complete the project successfully. Thanks for visiting my page! Look forward to hearing from you. Regards Mike

Dear Employer, I am a highly-skilled writer who has strong visual awareness, exemplary grammar and spelling knowledge, and the ability to analyze and modify. When it comes to missing links and correcting errors, look no farther. Remember, your content could be a first impression. If you send out material that is riddled with misspellings, grammatical errors, and wrong information, you aren’t going to be presenting a good image of your business. Here is the summary what you have requested. Task: Manuscript editing (Summer) Proposed Deadline: 3 days Let’s get that content in tip-top shape today. Best Regards, Roger Wilsher

Hello, I consider myself a skilled writer that strives to make the customer happy and completely satisfied. Since I have excellent grammar and spelling capabilities, I am able to determine the concept that is trying to be shared by the customer. I then turn around and correct missing links or other errors and produce refreshed content that is plagiarism-free. No online rewriting tool is needed in this case. It is important to remember that the content of your business plan – not just the appearance – could be the first impression a prospective client may get. If the prospective customer receives a document that is full of grammatical errors, misspelled words, and inaccurate information it can give a poor impression of the presenting business. It would be my pleasure to help you get your content in optimal shape. Regards

Hello, I am an experienced academic editor and proofreader. I am familiar with Chicago style referencing (although it is not my preferred style). I work across all fields of academia. English is my native language. I can't tell you how long the project may take until I see the quality of writing and referencing. My hourly rate for editing and proofreading is $30. Best of luck

Hello friend, welcome with your project. I have checked your requirements on this editing task and confident to deliver a plagiarism free paper on time. Can you please share the manuscript? So that O can check it from my side. Is it only about grammatical editing or do we need to edit/modify the content as well? Does the reference section need any changes? Please reply to discuss more on your project. Also, provide the required reading materials/instruction sheet, if there is any. **Regular drafts will be provided. Thanks in advance

Hi Beth! I would love to edit and format your manuscript for you! I graduated with honors from George Mason University with dual degrees (a double BA in English and Art History and a BA in Graphic Design). For my Art History major, all of my research papers had to be written and formated using Chicago Manual Style. And of course, strong editing skills were taught in my English program. For the project, I will use Microsoft Word and a program called Zotero. Zotero was created by George Mason University and is used by academics all over the world to make sure that all sources are documented correctly. The project will take around 5 days to complete, and will consist of at least 3 rounds of edits. Reach out to me if you have any questions. I can also send you my research papers for references if needed. Best, Megan Snyder
