I record audiobooks to ACX standard. I have to date narrated nine books that can be found on Amazon and Apple podcasts. I have an excellent speaking voice, clear, precise and free of accent. I have an excellent command of the English language and type 105+ words per minute with 99.9% accuracy. I can complete approximately 120+ minutes of clear audio per day. I have been proofreading for over 20 years for various companies around the world. I currently do transcription and proofreading for universities and corporate companies, disciplinary hearings, minutes of South African government meetings, webinars and court cases. I currently work for transcription companies based in South Africa, the US and the UK and have also completed transcription files for companies and universities in Australia, Europe and Asia. Don't let typos, incorrect grammar or misspelling be a reflection of you or your company. I look forward to being of assistance to you and guarantee only the highest quality of work, on time, every time.
