Thesis & dissertation proofreading & editing for ESL authors
Our editing consultants are native English speakers and have read and critiqued thousands of theses, dissertations, research papers and assignment projects for ESL authors.
We subscribe to the same principles of academic integrity that an institution mandates.
Proofreading
We provide a thorough review of the clients’ writing piece to remove or correct errors of spelling, punctuation, syntax, grammar and formatting.
Editing
We focus on improving the overall quality of the writing, language use and expression of ideas and arguments, making changes that make an article easier to understand, and more suitable for the audience.
Our consultants edit Microsoft Word documents using the track changes so all of our changes are clearly visible, with suggestions and comments made in the margin.
