Favorite referencing style

APA is my favorite, as I am the most familiar with it.

Why I became an editor

I am passionate about reading and writing, and I love the English language. I have always enjoyed helping my school friends with their English, and I eventually became an English teacher.

Background and experience

I taught business English for 13 years, I am a certified translator and interpreter between English and Serbian, and I have some experience proofreading for agencies (academic proofreading) and individuals (children's books and short stories).

Why I love proofreading and editing

I enjoy proofreading academic texts and fiction, I am curious by nature, and I enjoy reading about the sciences and humanities. Proofreading allows me to gain new knowledge in various fields. I have some experience with APA and Harvard referencing.
