I have experience proofreading and editing manuscripts of varying genres (including fiction and non-fiction), articles, ESL course plans, social media posts and PowerPoint presentations for both native and non-native English speakers. Working as an English as a Secondary Language teacher, I am accustomed to working with people of all nationalities and English levels!
You are in control of the level of editing you want for your text and I can follow your specific style guide. Deadlines will be agreed upon ahead of time.
1. What types of documents do you proofread and edit?
I work with a wide range of content, including fiction and non-fiction manuscripts, academic papers, ESL teaching materials, blog articles, social media posts, and business presentations.
2. Do you only work with native English speakers?
Not at all! I have extensive experience working with both native and non-native English speakers. My background as an ESL teacher helps me support writers at any level of English proficiency.
3. Can you follow a specific style guide?
Yes. I can tailor the editing process to your preferred style guide (APA, MLA, Chicago, house style, etc.) or follow your unique tone and formatting preferences.
4. How much editing do you do? Can I choose the level?
Absolutely. You can decide whether you want basic proofreading (grammar, spelling, punctuation) or deeper editing (structure, clarity, flow). We’ll discuss your needs before getting started.
5. What are your turnaround times?
Turnaround times depend on the length and complexity of the text. We’ll agree on a deadline before I begin, and I always strive to deliver on time.
6. Do you offer English lessons as well?
Yes! I offer tailored English classes for both adults and children. Lessons can be online or in-person in Valencia (if available), and they focus on your individual learning goals.
7. What are your rates for English classes?
Individual classes are €25 per hour. A pack of 10 lessons costs €200. For duo classes (two students at the same level), the rate is €350 for 10 sessions (€175 per person).
8. How do I get started?
Just send me a message through the contact form or email. I’ll get back to you as soon as possible to discuss your project or set up a trial class.
