"David helped me editing a 3,800 travel piece that I intend to publish on some specialist websites. His work was exceptional and he delivered with great professionalism. He was also very responsive throughout the entire project when I had questions, something I really appreciated. I enjoyed working with him and would recommend him to anyone who needs help with proofreading and copyediting."
- Giacomo G.
With a first class degree in English literature, you can hire me with total confidence for: * PROOFREADING & EDITING - Academic theses and dissertations, commercial text, eBooks, novels and any other English text. Track Changes is used with MS Word documents to clearly indicate any alterations made and to provide comments in the margin. * WRITING - Effective Google-compliant SEO articles and website copy, engaging blog posts and eBooks, enticing product descriptions, etc. My 'REPEAT HIRE' rate is DOUBLE THE AVERAGE. Here's why: * 100% ORIGINAL WRITING - Perfect UK or American English with no plagiarism * RELIABILITY & QUALITY - 100% on time and on budget, always delivered to a 5* standard * PERSONAL SERVICE - Only I will be working directly with you and only I will be doing the work * FIRST-CLASS COMMUNICATION - Because I don't work as part of a team, I can update you on the progress of your project any time you want to know.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Mr. David, a highly skilled professional with a first-class degree in English Literature. His expertise in proofreading and editing is exceptional. He meticulously reviewed my academic thesis, demonstrating a keen eye for detail and providing valuable comments and suggestions for improvement. What stood out was his use of MS Word's Track Changes feature, which made it easy to identify and understand every alteration he suggested. Additionally, David's commitment to delivering a personalized service was evident throughout our collaboration. He was consistently proactive in communicating with me, ensuring that I was updated on the progress and fully satisfied with the work. His dedication to quality assurance and his kind follow-ups were truly commendable. Moreover, David's punctuality and efficiency in completing the work ahead of the scheduled time were remarkable, adding to the overall professionalism of his service. Based on my experience, I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. David to anyone in need of top-notch proofreading, editing, or writing services. His reliability, quality of work, and personal approach make him an outstanding choice in this field.
