Skills
I'm offering
I am an experienced proofreader and copywriter. As a qualified primary school teacher and TEFL English teacher, I have an excellent command of the English language and a thorough understanding and experience of writing for various audiences and editing work.
I am degree-educated and ran my own English language school for 20 years in Devon, UK with great success. This gave me valuable skills in communication and business management, as well as further enabling me to hone my proofreading and editing skills.
