Thesis and dissertation editing and proofreading
If you are a graduate or postgraduate student working on a major research project we recommend you have a professional editor review your written work before submission to improve your chance of success.
Research is only half the job
Although the content of your research will certainly be the primary concern during your study, it is equally important that you communicate your findings in clear, accurate English.
Poor English will likely lead examiners to instruct you to rewrite your paper, which means hours of additional labour on a project you thought was behind you. Rewriting means the added cost of re-printing and re-binding your thesis after it has been rewritten. All this amounts to a difficult process, which can be avoided.
Professional editing is the solution

Can I use the funding allowance provided by my university for proofreading and editing to purchase your services?
Yes, many students are allocated a portion of their grant, scholarship or sponsorship funding for editing and proofreading and have used this to purchase our professional services. Check with your sponsors for advice.

Did you know that your thesis can be turned into a text that reads well in correct English within only a few days? If your work is well written and easily understandable, the response by your examiners is much more likely to be positive and the whole task of examining the thesis becomes an enjoyable and rewarding one. Remember, examiners are human, so their "mood" and initial impression of your writing will affect your results.
Don't take risks with a project of such significance. Let us help you achieve the success your skills and effort deserve.

What we do

"I am very appreciative of what my editor did for me. My document looks much better than it was. It is more critical and fluent. My unit coordinator has criticised my lack of critical thinking in the past so I am very pleased with the editing. I found that your work adding connecting words has improved the clarity of my sentences and better reflects what I want to say. Thank you for your assistance."

While content remains your responsibility, we will check the text for:
- Spelling and punctuation
- Appropriate vocabulary
- Solecisms and syntax
- Repetition, ambiguity and redundancy
- Omissions and inconsistencies
- Structural organisation and logical progression
- Consistency of style
We will also:
- Edit to a specified word limit
- Preserve your "voice"
- Eliminate verbosity and rambling
In doing this we will make the necessary changes to ensure that your work is coherent and concise, has internal consistency, and is organised upon logical principles. In short, we will clean up any aspects of awkward writing and convert confusion to clarity.
