"I’ve been working on my master’s thesis for many weeks now and have gone through ups and downs. Writing the thesis in parallel to my normal job certainly makes it even more nerve-wracking! I haven’t got any support so far, so it was all the nicer to see how much work you put into editing my thesis. To be honest, it really moved me. I am really very grateful to you. You really did a wonderful job and I will always be grateful to you."

Copy editing
I provide a copy editing service for 2p per word (£20 per 1,000 words). This includes…
– correction of errors in spelling, grammar, etc.
– removal of repetition and redundancy
– rewording of awkward syntax
– minor restructuring
– rephrasing to clarify key points
At your request, I can also…
– format the text (consistent type face, line spacing, text sizing, etc.)
– format the headings and create a dynamic contents page
– create a dynamic list of tables and figures
– generate a list of the abbreviations used in the text
What’s the difference?
Proofreading is the correction of errors in spelling, grammar, syntax, and punctuation.
Copy editing is far more extensive and includes correcting errors and making creative improvements. At your request, I can also edit the format of the paper to bring it in line with APA style guidelines.
