Academic Editing for Nonnative English
We regularly work with nonnative English speakers who must publish in English to advance their careers. Editing nonnative English—also called English as a second language (ESL) or English as a foreign language (EFL)—is a specialized skill. We read to make sense of the research, ask questions to help you say what you mean, edit for sentence structure and word choice, and ensure that a manuscript meets publishing guidelines. We work closely with you to achieve accuracy, clarity, and consistency. Our goal is to make writing in English less daunting and to make your manuscript suitable for publication. We are passionate about helping clients from all corners of the world succeed in publishing or funding their research!
Editing for Career Advancement
We love to help people get admitted, hired, and funded! We edit resumes, CVs, and cover letters; personal statements and program application materials; and proposals for scholarships, fellowships, and research funding. We can coach you through the writing process, provide feedback on the structure of personal statements and grant proposals, and help you craft and revise required materials. We can also offer final copyediting and proofreading to make sure your documents are clear and clean. Note that we do not write or rewrite your materials, research, analyze, or advise on your choice of school or funding agency, or advise on the college or graduate admission process.
