By academic level

Which service suits your document?

PhD thesis

Long documents need consistent terms, clear chapter flow and careful referencing. Many students edit one chapter at a time, then add a formatting pass before submission.

English editing

Master’s thesis

A Master’s thesis is shorter than a doctoral one, but it still needs a clear argument and clean referencing. English editing usually covers the whole document.

English editing

Journal article

Journals set strict author guidelines. Good English and correct formatting work well together, so many authors book both before they submit.

Article formatting

Book chapter

Chapters in edited volumes often need language editing and formatting to match the publisher’s template. We can do both in one order.

Extra support
