Hello, I need to proofread about 75000 characters of text in English. It is mostly plaintext but it also contains some HTML tags (such as some text) so basic knowledge of HTML/PHP is welcomed. You should be able to proofread and check the text in HTML (total of 10000 words or 75000 characters including spaces in 3 files). You must be a native English speaker (please mention where you are from) and it is an advantage if you have similar experience. I strongly prefer people from these countries: UK, US, AU, IE, CA. I will not accept freelancers from countries where English is not the primary language. No expert knowledge is required for the text, the topic is investing. The text is intended for European audience (after being translated) so using British (UK) words and formatting is preferred. Please post you price and a bit about yourself (e.g. your experience with writing and proofreading, where you're from etc). Best regards, Dmitrij P.S.: I will send you the files as soon as you accept the project (after I choose you). Thanks for understanding!

Experienced native English (UK) proofreader/editor. Done a substantial amount of editing on financial / investment / forex topics, many of past projects - for Russian clients (I understand Russian which might come in useful if the original was written in Russian and you provide the file). Clever and error-free editing. Can work with coded content. Links to samples of my work - below. If you are interested in using my services, I would really need to see the text first so I can give a more accurate price and turnaround time, thank you. About me. Over 15 years’ experience in teaching English, proofreading and editing. I edit web sites (some links - below), applications, marketing materials (brochures, presentations), press-releases, games, video scripts, theses, business plans, patents, instruction manuals, etc. My rate is not the lowest, it does, however, reflect the time, effort and commitment I put into my work. I offer unlimited revisions at no extra charge.

I am expert in editing academic and related forms of writing with exacting attention to style, diction, persuasiveness, and coherence. I can provide any level of proofreading for grammar, punctuation and word usage to substantive editing for conceptual and logical soundness. I can help you get your piece from ideas to outline, from outline to rough draft, from rough draft to final version, or from substantively complete to publishable. Understanding the structure of arguments is the foundation of analytic philosophy, my core discipline. I will make sure that your article -- whatever the discipline -- provides a well-structured, conceptually sound argument for its conclusion.

Hi there! I work as an academic writer and editor for the last few years, and I have completed my Masters' Degree in English. I am quite unsure about the project details - do you just want the work proofread, or would you like someone to also edit it to ensure that it is perfectly aligned in logic and its statement? I understand HTML tags, thanks to my food blog (which I maintain and update myself). If you are interested in my profile after going through it, let me know. I do not take up a lot of projects at a time, so that I can give individual projects my undivided attention. Currently, I do not have any projects lined up in the next week, so I will be focusing on your project solo. Let me know if you are interested. Also, I saw that you wanted to know where I was from. Well, I was born in Florida, brought up partly in India and Florida, and I currently live in India.

Hello there. I am a native-English speaker from New Zealand. NZ English is closer to UK than US English. I am a qualified academic writer and editor. I specialize in correcting and polishing writing by authors whose first language is not English (including Google Translate!). I have worked on financial/banking topics and can cover most subjects. I'm familiar with HTML/PHP and have written this type of text before myself for clients. Kind regards, Linda.

I'm Canadian (from the English part, not the French). I got into proofreading/editing while working extensively in Wikipedia. Then I decided it would be nice to get paid for it. The quality of my work is shown by the fact that a significant percentage of my clients have either rehired me or given me an unsolicited bonus (three times in my last 12 jobs) or both.

Hello! I am a native English speaker from the United States. I am currently employed with the North Dakota Legislative Council as their proofreader, and I have been a proofreader/editor for over 9 years. I have an in-depth knowledge of the English language and grammar, and I have proofread many different types of documents. On a daily basis, I have to produce high-quality work that is not only error-free but also flows smoothly and makes sense. The majority of the work I do is seen by the public, so I have to ensure that my work is the highest quality so the author of the document maintains a good rapport with the public. I would love the opportunity to help you with your project and to show you the quality of work I can do. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you in advance for your time. ~KJensen0711

Hi Dmitrij! Although you've specifically mentioned that you require a Native English speaker for this job, I'm putting forward my proposal with the hope that after perusing it, you'll appraise me as equally capable. I'm a journalism student who's pursuing his Master's degree from a top university. I also have the experience of interning at a news agency for a period of 6 months where I underwent professional training to do editorial tasks like yours with indomitable precision and efficacy. I have several former employers as alibi and my English score (US English Level 3 & UK English 2) on this platform is amongst the best. I'm available for discussions virtually any time of the day and believe that employer satisfaction is the only befitting yardstick to measure success. I'll be looking forward to hear from you. Thanks for this opportunity.

Hi, Dmitrij. I am a native English speaker from the UK. I am an experienced proofreader and copyeditor, having worked on a wide variety of texts ranging from academic papers, through to commercial texts such as web content for a variety of industries. (Working as a freelancer, I usually use a different website - People Per Hour - hence my lack of feedback on Freelancer.com, so please don't let this put you off.) Should you choose to award the project to me, you can expect high quality standards, a fast turnaround and fast, friendly communication. I can have this project completed to the highest standards within 3 days of receiving the file. I look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards, Amanda

Dear Dmitrij, I hope you are well. I'd love to help you wih your project should you find my skillset appropriate. My name is Nicola and I am an experienced, native proofreader, editor and teacher of British English. Before moving abroad, I spent 10 years working in communications roles in the UK public and volutary sectors, which included editing and publishing specialist journals and writing and uploading web content. I hold a BA in English and Philosophy from the University of Liverpool, a Master of Laws in Human Rights from Birkbeck (UCL) and a PGCE in Secondary Citizenship. I am currently teaching English to teachers and military personnel in Spain, while working as a freelance communications professional. As I mentioned above, I do have experience of editing copy for web, but my knowledge of HTML is very basic. If you could give me an example of the kind of checking you need, I will tell you if I am able to do it. I will be honest - I don't see any point agreeing to work I can't do! I look forward to hearing from you, Nicola

Hello Dmitrij, I would love to work on this project. I am an editor/proofreader originally from the US, but I've lived in Canada as well and I have experience working for Canadian and British companies where knowledge of UK formatting and grammar was essential. I am an award-winning writer with years of experience in both academic and creative writing. Since I run my own blogs, I also have the basic HTML knowledge necessary for this project. I have an eye for detail, and will definitely be an asset for this project. Thanks so much for your time, and please feel free to message me at any time if you have questions or would like to discuss details. Best, Annabelle
