About Hélène

A graduate of a business school, I spent about twenty years in administrative and accounting roles that honed my rigor and writing skills. Then, driven by my natural appetite for the French language and its subtleties, I chose to train in proofreading and editing methods at EMI (École des métiers de l'information, Paris).

Fully certified, I now work as a proofreader-editor for independent authors, individuals, communication professionals, and publishing houses.

Meticulous, curious, and organized, I detect and correct inaccuracies of all kinds (spelling, grammar, syntax, typography) while respecting the author's style; furthermore, I scrupulously check contextual elements (dates, names, etc.) and ensure the consistency of the texts entrusted to me.

With a very high-speed internet connection, I work quickly and adapt to your needs.

The rate for each assignment is determined based on the volume and complexity of the work to be done. Every request will receive a detailed, free, and no-obligation quote.

I am at your service... Do not hesitate to contact me!
