Edit Table of Contents, Check citations, and Proofread Textbook

$250-750 USD

Paid on delivery
We have a textbook for future beauty industry educators (people who will be teaching in cosmetology schools, barber schools, etc.) that needs a final proofread and the page numbers added to the Table of Contents. We also need someone to make sure everything that should be cited is. There is to be absolutely no substantive/content edits, as it has already been edited several times and the publisher likes where the content is at right now! Only minor proofreading such as the correction of punctuation, spelling mistakes, etc. in Track Changes. We will review the qualifications of several candidates. If we are interested in moving forward with you, we will require you to sign an NDA before giving you a sample of the document to review and determine if you're interested/this is a job you can do. If you decide at that point this is something you want to take on, you will be required to sign an Editor's contract. The textbook is roughly 170 pages/70,000 words. This is a textbook focused on classroom management, pedagogy, best practices for working with students...Therefore, the language is academic yet approachable. The book will be published in June for international sale. There could be an opportunity for more work in the future/a long-term relationship. Beauty industry experience is a plus but not required. Thank you!

Dear Prospective Employer, I'd love to be given the opportunity to work on this project. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Management and Marketing and a Master's degree in Marketing. I believe I would be the perfect fit for this job. I’d like to point out that I’m originally from West Virginia (US) so I’m a native English speaker. Please contact me for samples of work as I have plenty to show you and I’m unable to attach any files to this first message. I need to review a few sample pages before I can give an accurate quote. I’m open to discuss this further with you. I worked for 3 years in a corporate setting, which consisted of a venture capital fund, putting together financials including P&L forecasts, cash flow projections, balance sheets and a lot more. I worked in market research and advertising and I've written business plans in various industries, from online ventures to brick-and-mortar companies in the construction industry, billboard advertising and more. I am certain that my writing services would be an asset to you and your business. I invite you to get back to me so I can share a few samples with you. Thank you for your time and consideration, Bella

I'd be glad to do a complimentary edit or even send you a sample of my work. I am recently retired, so I have the time to devote to long-term work as well. Try me out - you won't be disappointed!

Dear Employer, “Hiring” is certainly a hard process, and I wish I’d be able to save your time and efforts by taking the whole responsibility of your project. Before you make any decision, I would like to explain what I can offer: 1. QUALITY: It’s a quite ambiguous, and often misused, term. People say they provide Grammatical-Error Free Text and/or Plagiarism Free Text and they believe they are talking about quality. No. These two factors are NECESSITIES, not qualities. Quality, I believe, is beyond these two factors. Quality comes when I can reflect your ideas in my own words. 2. RESEARCH: It’s easy to find journals, white papers, or books on Google-Scholar/Online-libraries, and give a spin to the text, properly reference it with APA, MLA or Harvard style of referencing, and make it look like original work. However, the real research involves understanding the subject matter by reading various resources and taking notes, which will assist you to write the paper. 3. PROOFREADING: PUNCTUATION, SPELLING, GRAMMAR, USAGE, SYNTAX, and DICTION. Yes, a text isn’t a text until it follows the rules of our beautiful English Language. 4. FORMATTING: Often this part of the paper is ignored. However, formatting of a document is as important as the Quality of the text. I hope I’ve made it easy for you to make the decision about whom to hire. For further assistance, you just have to press the “CHAT” button.

Hi, my name is Andrew. I am a highly experienced academic writer, proofreader and editor. Please feel free to ask any questions or request samples of my work. I am also more than happy to proofread a sample of the required document for you. I am a member of the Society for Editors and Proofreaders in the UK and I have particular skills in copy editing and typesetting articles ready for publication. Although my main work involves preparing manuscripts ready for publishing, this of course starts with a thorough and accurate proofread. I have an impeccable eye for detail and always submit perfect work to the highest standard. I am fully proficient with all the relevant software and always use track changes. I will then submit a tracked copy and a clean copy ready for use. Recent relevant experience includes the final proofreading of academic books for publication including study guides, sport tutorial books and exam papers. Most of my work is covered by NDAs which I adhere to, this is why I have no portfolio available. I am happy to show samples of my work that has been published, therefore not as sensitive, and I am of course happy to proofread a sample for you and show how I can complete the job. Thank You.
