Hi there, I'm Annabelle.

I've been an editor and proofreader for five years, with over 800 manuscripts under my belt. I received a Master's in Gender Studies from the University of Cambridge in 2023, so I am well familiar with the world of theses and dissertations. My specialty subjects include history, religion, and sociology, but I've worked with manuscripts from just about every field (including STEM subjects—my undergraduate degree is in Mathematics).

I provide accessible, efficient English proofreading and editing services for students, academics, and other professionals. I have extensive experience helping ESL individuals improve their writing. Outside of work, I like baking, reading, and hiking. I'm also a part-time yoga instructor.

WHY YOU NEED A PROOFREADER

Proofreaders do more than fix grammar or spelling mistakes. They also ensure consistency throughout your document. Perhaps you've capitalized a certain term sometimes but not all the time, or you've forgotten when it's necessary to define acronyms, or you're daunted at the prospect of sifting through your reference list to make sure it complies with your required citation style. Take it from someone who knows: this type of work is the last thing you want to do after you've finished writing a massive academic dissertation. Allow me to do it for you!

"I’ve had the pleasure of having Annabelle as my proofreader and editor in several projects. One of the things I appreciate most is her precision. Even the smallest edits are clearly marked and explained, ensuring that none of my original meaning is lost or unintentionally altered. This level of clarity and care builds a great sense of trust and helps me feel confident in the final version of any text. Additionally, her openness in communication is especially helpful. Annabelle’s efforts and disciplined work make it easy to review changes, ask questions, and ensure everything is aligned before finalizing my projects.
