Dave was meticulously detailed in his proofreading. My thesis contained challenging themes and issues, and I wanted to have someone compassionate and understanding proofread it. Dave gave helpful notes and was available to discuss with him anything that I wanted to explore. He understood that I am dyslexic so was able to suggest appropriate adjustments where I had made grammatical errors, or something hadn’t made sense without ever compromising the authenticity of my work.

Dave was a pleasure to work with when he helped to proof my book. I can thoroughly recommend him, he was organised, attentive to detail and spent time not only proofing the work but speaking to me directly about the process.
He was friendly, patient and a joy to work with. Thank you!

I have been working with Dave for a good while now and can thoroughly recommend his skills as a proofreader and editor. He is professional and thoughtful in all aspects of his work. Good communication, fair pricing and great attention to detail, as well as punctual and quick with everything he does; are all good attributes that makes working with him a pleasure. Highly recommended.

It was serendipity that I found Dave for a series of educational booklets that were rough and ready but needed considerable tuning.
Dave was the man for the job, his linguistic skills making all the difference. Dave is fun to work with and through his professionalism the finished product was excellent.

Dave is professional, efficient and thorough in all the work we’ve asked him to proofread, including our annual review and newsletters. He’s eager to get the job done, is hot on grammar and most importantly he is a pleasure to work with.
