Favorite referencing style

APA referencing because it is the one that I have studied and used the most!

Why I became an editor

When I transitioned from teaching Italian to English, I found my passion for my native language.

Over the years, my passion continued to develop and I was led to proofreading. For me, proofreading is a wonderful combination of being enjoyable and rewarding. I value helping people express themselves accurately whilst preserving their unique voice.

Background and experience

I have been a language teacher for over 10 years and have been doing casual proofreading jobs for the last three years.

Why I love proofreading and editing

I love helping people tell their story or share their knowledge whilst providing them with the confidence that their writing is accurate and professional.

Favorite book:

“Three Women” by Lisa Taddeo.

Hobbies:

When I'm not proofreading, you can find me in the kitchen (either cooking OR eating) or sitting behind a spritz on the seaside.

Editing tips:

I first like to read the whole document to understand the topic, tone and style. From there, I approach grammar and punctuation before ultimately ensuring flow and preservation of the author's voice.
