Favorite referencing style

APA is my favorite because it's the one I used more often at university.

Why I became an editor

After studying English language and literature, I wasn't sure what path to follow. I started teaching English as a second language to learners of all ages, and at some point, I got the idea to start looking for online jobs relevant to my studies. That's when I came across proofreading, which seemed perfect for me. Being a stickler for grammar doesn't get you many friends, but it definitely helps when you have a document to proofread!

Background and experience

I worked as a teacher of English as a second language.

Why I love proofreading and editing

I love reading and I love listening to people. I love learning about their ideas, feelings, and experiences. It gives me great pleasure to know that I can help people express and communicate these ideas in the most clear and efficient way possible.

Favorite book:

Hard Times by Charles Dickens

Hobbies:

When I'm not proofreading, I like spending time with the people I love, eating, and binging Netflix shows. Often, I do all of these at the same time!

Editing tips:

When I am given a document, I like to read it once to understand its tone and style, so that when I have proofread it, its initial purpose and meaning is not distorted.
