English Copy-Editing
Careful editing that removes grammatical errors and refines readability, without altering your argument or voice.
With over ten years' experience as a professional copy editor for non-native academic authors, my editorial services ensure your theses, manuscripts, and research articles get your message across clearly, and meet the rigorous standards of journals and publishers. I check every sentence for grammar, clarity, consistency and flow, provide tracked changes and comments for review, and work closely with you throughout the process.
I copy-edit texts in a range of disciplines, from dentistry to law, but I specialise in social sciences and the humanities. I have edited a large number of texts in social anthropology, sociology, migration studies, intercultural studies, political sciences and history. My academic background is primarily in Hispanic studies, translation studies and, primarily, social anthropology, with a particular focus on economic anthropology.
