Frequently asked questions about my proofreading service
How do you make changes?
I use the ‘Track changes’ feature in Word.
How long will it take?
A thesis of 20,000 words will take 3-4 working days and a PhD will take between 6-8 working days.
Do I have to sit down with you while you proofread?
No, that is not necessary, we liaise with each other by email or phone.
Do you make format and layout changes?
No, I do not change margins, change or add tables or alignment.
What happens if you are not familiar with the subject matter?
I have ample experience in the humanities and areas of science and technology. Proofreading does not require a deep understanding of the subject matter, but copy editing may, in which case I will contact you if I have any questions.
How do I pay?
50% before I start and 50% on completion. This is by bank deposit into an Irish account. If you are overseas I accept Paypal.
Do you offer extra fast turn around times?
Yes I do. If you need a thesis proofread in two days or less there is an slight additional charge.
I don’t speak English well can you write my thesis for me?
I am afraid I offer proofreading and editing services ONLY, I do not write theses.
How can I send my thesis to you?
By email or with Google Docs or Dropbox if the document is too large to send by email.
