Dear future clients,
I am a native English speaker from the UK living in Taiwan. My primary business is teaching English as a second language (ESL) and technical proofreading. I have impeccable attention to detail and always communicate clearly with my clients to ensure 100% satisfaction, on time, and within budget.
Whilst I may be new to Upwork, I have completed hundreds of proofreading tasks (British and American English) on other freelancing platforms (under the name MTVoices), and throughout my career as an aerospace engineer, senior manager, project manager, and subject matter expert for Aviation English. I have also been a course designer and instructor. I now have my own UK-registered company (interview-english.com) for teaching English online to professionals in business, science, aviation, engineering and more.
I love teaching, but I also love to travel, and proofreading works perfectly for me for remote working. My proofreading experience covers engineering documentation, user manuals, contracts, investigation reports, policies and procedure documents, training literature, dissertations, university application letters, and even scripts for YouTube. My previous major clients include the UK Ministry of Defence, UK FCO, Goodrich Power Systems, Macau Business Aviation Centre, the Greek Tourist Board, and most recently, Samsung, as well as individual work. Some documents may have ambiguous statements that need clarification on the intended meaning. I will always clarify these points rather than assume. I work in complete confidence and never publish any examples of my work online, nor would I send any as examples of previous work. I would prefer a client send me one of their documents, and I will proofread it and provide a free sample so they can see the true value of my work. MS Word is my preferred format for efficiency and accuracy, as well as the comprehensive tracking tools. Here are some reviews from previous clients:
5 Stars - Switzerland - "Mick has proofread and revised several technical documents, including technical manuals and instructions, for me so far. He has always delivered absolutely professional work and has always exceeded my expectations! Mick stands out with his technical understanding, his work ethic, and his delivery of high quality! He always goes the extra mile, which I tremendously appreciate! Thank you, Mick!"
5 Stars - Czech Republic - "Mick proofread and corrected a fairly large technical document for me. He communicated readily and professionally and delivered the result in just a few days. I was happy with the result and could use it right away."
5 Stars - USA - "Working with Mick couldn't have gone any better. He gave me a very fair price on a specific custom order, in which he went above and beyond, taking my ideas and expanding on them, resulting in a final product that was better than I had even hoped. I will definitely be returning, and if you're considering working with him, I cannot recommend him enough. Would rate 6/5 if I could."
Please feel free to contact me any time if you would like further details. I am here to help.
I look forward to working with you soon.

I'm from Taiwan, a native Mandarin Chinese speaker and fluent English speaker. I've helped numerous business owners and individuals enter the Chinese marketplace. In order to achieve a successful project, I listen to what client needs and make sure which Chinese spoken areas client targets, so I know which writing systems or dialects I should translate to.
Due to the fact that the majority of the Mandarin-speaking population uses Simplified Chinese, I'm generally asked to translate to this writing system. However, I'm also seeking opportunities to promote Traditional Chinese.
Most of the projects I have on Upwork (formerly oDesk) are translating from English into Simplified Chinese. Since I'm not native English speaker, I can't claim to present error-free results. Unless clients don't mind and are willing to give me this offer, I usually don't take Chinese to English translation project.
I know how important trust, understanding and communication are. Clients' feedback proves how seriously I took each project no matter its complexity. I endeavor to build a great professional reputation. Finally, I'm open to any suggestions or critics. Thank you!
