I have been trained to proofread to a very high standard and have experience in proofreading using the following:
- Track Changes in Word
- British Standards Institution (BSI) marks on PDF or paper
- Adobe Acrobat comment tools.
During my studies, I used Harvard and Modern Humanities Research Association (MHRA) styles. I’m happy to work with other referencing styles – just ask!
As an experienced administrator, I have many years of experience of producing accurate work to strict deadlines. I have worked for a variety of employers in different roles – from carrying out confidential data input for my local Fire and Rescue Service to providing human resources administration support for a company that supports people with learning disabilities.
I also work part-time as a library assistant – so I’m happy to help with your queries! If I don’t know the answer to your question, I’ll try to point you in the direction of someone who does.
