I'm offering
I am an EFL teacher by day, yoga instructor by night and like to take on some editing and administrative work on the side. I have a keen eye for detail and a way with words. I am a very through and fast content editor. Being an EFL teacher, I am highly aware of communication gaps for non-native speakers and am adept at bridging such gaps. Additionally, I have experience editing and proofreading a variety of academic content in various fields, from thesis proposals in molecular science to dissertations in psychology. I have also edited content for research organizations and cover letters for applicants. As I am an American living in the UK, I have an awareness of difference in American and British English and can tailor your work to meet your needs.
