If you need assistance to improve your original work in English, I can help you. For me, the nice thing about knowing an international language like English is that it doesn't really matter to me what you need to communicate in English or for what reason you need to write it. I enjoy words and language. I have an excellent grasp of many of the rules of the English language. My own academic background includes an M.A. in Political Science. Much of what I have worked on are academically-related papers and reports. I don't want to do your homework, but I would love to try to improve what you have written. I have the privilege of also receiving papers from other sources, so I have worked on about 173 projects over just short of two and a half years.

Hi there! My name is Grace, and I am a full-time English and Creative Writing professor at a private college in Florida, part-time freelance editor, and writer in my free time. Although I stay busy, I am always looking for new ways to expand my skill sets and broaden my marketability here on Upwork. As a professor in my field, I am knowledgeable in both academic/research style writing, as well as creative writing. I have been editing and proofreading freelance for over six years now and am also well-versed in most areas of this kind of work. Besides all that, I am married and have one son, who is a huge reason for my wanting to be the best person I can be. I also am biracial (Malaysian Chinese and American-Caucasian) and partially fluent in Mandarin, as I grew up in Malaysia. Please message me if you are in need of a proofreader or editor who is willing, efficient, and capable. :)
