Back to original languageAbout Emma
Translation and proofreading in English and American English is my daily job. I have owned my own independent proofreading business since 2017. I do all the work myself according to your specifications. I look forward to connecting with you (see my photos and Proofreading & Editing Service below for examples).
Would you like to give a serious and professional touch to your documents in impeccable English?
I offer you my proofreading/correction services for your dissertations, theses, industrial documents, guides, menus, books, notices, CVs and cover letters, reports, and any other type of document.
My proofreading and correction services range from checking syntax to punctuation, including spelling and reformulation.
When you contact me for a quote, please send me the total word count, and preferably a writing sample. This way, I can respond to your request much faster.
WHO AM I?
British by birth, I live between Dijon, Paris & Edinburgh, and English is therefore my native language.
I hold a Master of Arts degree in Creative Writing from the University of St Andrews (Scotland) and a PhD in Literature from the University of Warwick in Coventry (England). I am also a writer and have published five books of fiction and short stories.
I invite you to contact me with any questions or for a quote.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Emma
MY CLIENTS ABOUT ME
"Emma added many comments and suggestions to make the sentences more "spontaneous" to an English speaker's eye, without altering the scientific meaning of the sentence in question. The order was fulfilled very quickly (a few days before the manuscript was returned). I therefore recommend this serious service." Corentin I.
