STEP-BY-STEP
Proofreading with minor editing
This service is suitable for work that is basically well-written and needs correction and polishing. We reserve the right to deny this service for work that cannot be understood adequately by an appropriate professional.
Interactive editing: once-off baseline
Sometimes, a first draft of a paper/research proposal/dissertation requires basic editing before it is shared with co-researchers etc. We consider this to be “interactive editing” since dialogue is necessary before commencing the editing work, but only one draft is returned to the client.
Interactive editing:
up to five iterations
This is a comprehensive editing service, where your revised document may be resubmitted up to four times (a total of five submissions) until a satisfactory version is achieved.
