Certified Proofreader Overview

Anyone who produces written material for a wider audience needs a thorough, expert proofreader to ensure the quality and consistency of their work. As a proofreader who graduated from Proofread Anywhere in the top 10 percent of students, my expert eyes will catch things that your automated spell-checkers and grammar-checkers often miss. This includes not only spelling and grammatical errors but also issues with formatting, tone & voice, and word usage. Researching is also important to me, as it helps ensure that you are using the correct, most up-to-date terminology in your writing.

I provide services for people in many different fields, including:

-Book & short-story authors
-Business writers (from advertisements to employee handbooks to product instruction manuals!)
-College students & academic professionals
-Bloggers, podcasters, journalists
-And many more!

Different fields of work follow different writing, formatting, and punctuation styles. If you are unsure of which style you should follow, I can help guide you in the right direction. I can also provide general feedback about font choices and other visual elements in your document.

Documents to be proofread can be provided in many different formats, including PDF, Word, and Google Docs. Each program has a unique way of recording proofreading suggestions so that you can easily review them.

To best serve you, I will ask specific questions regarding your preferences prior to beginning the actual proofreading process. Open communication is encouraged throughout the process to ensure that your work meets high standards while still reflecting your voice and preferences.
