This would be my first freelance project, however I am fully qualified for the job. I am one credit hour away from graduating with an English bachelors degree with an education minor. I have spent the past three years proofreading and copyediting for my professors, grading papers and writing. I also have a creative writing background and feel capable of handling any small word replacements.

I am a proofreader/technical editor new to this site, but not new to the business. English is my native language, and my knowledge of it is bolstered by college studies in Latin and Greek. I have experience in proofreading poetry, books, magazine articles, and advertisements. Because of my timely quality work, I have been asked to return by the various businesses for whom I have completed contract work. I have a strong academic background in English literature, and poetry reading has been a personal hobby for many years. Additionally, I have experience in working with elementary age children in the teaching arena. I look forward to being selected to proofread this children's poetry project.
