I am a freelance qualified proofreader with a BA (hons) in English Language with TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language), and minor degrees in Linguistics and Culture, Media and Communication, from Lancaster University, UK. I also have a Regent Academy Diploma in proofreading.
I proofread academic essays and dissertations for dictim.com, mainly consisting of work submitted by non-native speakers of English. I also proofread for First Edition publishers on behalf of Manchester Evening News. This mainly involves proofreading local history publications.
My specialist subject areas are English Language, Linguistics, TEFL, Media and Communication Studies, Cultural Studies, Educational Studies, and Journalism.
I am currently doing an MA in Broadcast Journalism, as well as proofreading for profit!
