What's the point of proofreading?

Proofreading should be the final polish to your work before it is sent out into the world, giving it a few last tweaks rather than a major overhaul. Corrections are limited to those that are necessary and where there is ambiguity or doubt I will raise it with you. As part of the proofreading process for your work I will focus on:

​

• spelling, punctuation and grammar

• consistency in language, hyphenation and capitalisation

• consistency in formatting, design and layout

• line and letter spacing

• tables, graphs, lists and captions

• references, footnotes and endnotes.

​

Who do I work for?

My particular areas of interest are driver education, primary education and music but I am always happy to quote for any type of work from publishers, businesses, non-profit organisations, academics and students.

What formats can I work on?

I can work on documents in MS Word (using Track Changes), pdf (using Comment tools or BSI markup) and hard copy (using BSI markup).
