Basic Information  Job Content The job is to proofread some short articles. Each article contains 250-300 words, and need to be proofread for errors with GRAMMAR and LOGIC. You should proofread in US English and with the style of Spoken English (not Written English). If you know about IELTS, you will know that in the oral section of this language test, the test taker will need to make a declarative answer to the topic that is given by the examiner. Our job, then, is to help test takers practice these topics in advance, and write & proofread high-quality SAMPLE ANSWERS. That's what you are asked to proofread. You should have the software of MS OFFICE to make sure the format is correct. And use the Change Track function in the software. There is a sample document with two articles attached. Please proofread them as a try before bid the task.  Remuneration & Workload The budget of each article (250-300 words) is $0.4. Generally we could provide as many as work you could do. And we advice you do 30-60 articles per day.  Method of Payment We will settle the payment for the last ten days at the 10th, 20th, 30/31th of each month.  Working Hours This is a part-time job, but it is possible that tasks are sent to you every weekday, including Saturdays and Sundays. We are unable to accept writers that work only five days per week. We will try our best to send you tasks in the mornings or at noon, and they need to be finished before that evening. We do not accept delayed tasks.  Contact Details We normally use emails to send tasks, which requires you to check your mail often in case you missed the assigned tasks. If possible, we also wish to stay in touch with you via Skype at all times.

Greetings, I am interested in working with you. Below is an edited version of one piece. I look forward to your response. Kind Regards. ANSWER No. 6 A: In my opinion, childhood is the best stage of life. Even in adulthood I’m fascinated by children and their imaginations and energy! That's why one year ago, I was so thoroughly amused by my younger brother. I remember the scene to this today, and I often share the story with others. A: Last month I gave my brother an orange because I thought that he needed some snacks. Instead of eating the orange, though, she started using it as a ball. He pretended to be a world-class baseball player as he tossed the orange into the air and caught it. The orange went higher and higher but my brother never dropped it and caught it every time. Watching his antics was so funny that it had me in stitches. A: While my nephew’s actions were funny, I was extremely impressed by his imagination and creativity. It made me realize how simple a child’s world is. With just a little imagination my brother was able to entertain himself for hours. It gave me a lot to think about because I realized that my own life had become too complicated that I should take more joy out of life’s simple moments. A: To be honest, whenever I walk down memory lane and revisit that day I cannot help but contemplate my own childhood and I wonder if I brought the same happiness and joy to others as he does to me.

Hi there, I'm a German-Lithuanian with a native-level proficiency in English, currently living in Cambodia. I've got a 100+ hours TEFL certificate as well as an extensive previous experience (over 5 years) in providing private English tutoring to adults of various ages (mostly TOEFL and IELTS preparation) and some additional experience in teaching at academic level (less than a year). I'm very interested in your project and I'm available throughout the week (flexible hours, can be agreed upon). Please feel free to contact me for a sample of proofread articles that you require (apparently, I can only send them to you once you get in touch with me) and any additional information.

Hi, An experienced copy editor is interested in your project. In the haste of writing, imperfections and flaws in any kind of work convey carelessness and lack of scruples; undermining the credibility and authority you probably have worked relentlessly to achieve. After working long and so hard on a paper, most writers devote only few minutes to proofreading, hoping to catch any surface and glaring errors that jump out from the page. However, a quick and cursory reading usually misses a lot. Because i have previous fallen into this ditch, I understand perfectly the importance of deep and thorough proofreading. Hence I will professionally proofread and edit up to 1,000 words of your document ( articles, book, report, essay, proposal and what have you) within 24 hours. This proofreading and editing offers: Spelling check Punctuation check Grammar structure check Improved readability Editing tasks will be done using Microsoft track changes and 100% refund is no change is required. Regards
