I need someone to proofread an academic dissertation of 35,000 words. Level of English is already very good, just need to go through some details like : 1. Avoiding colloquial abbreviations. 2. Avoiding bombastic words when simple ones do. 3. Avoiding using the same word over and over again. 4. Avoiding a conversational tone. 5. Use a more academic style of writing, by using 'we' instead of 'I', for instance.- improve style and tone. Material will be submitted in parts within the next few days. Deadline for the whole job is Wednesday 28th August. I'm attaching the first chapter here. KINDLY PROOF READ THE FIRST FIVE TO TEN PAGES AS A SAMPLE OF YOUR WORK

Hi, I currently hold an MA in English, and I'm working on my PhD. I have several years of proofreading experience and can provide a quick and efficient service. My years as a lecturer and educator should also be an asset, as I've spent most of my time teaching students how to write. This will help me make the type of suggestions you are looking for. I look forward to hearing from you, Rowan.
