Editing Service Now Available !

I am a teacher. My degrees include a minor in English/Language Arts. I have a Master's Degree in Special Education, and with that, I was able to help struggling writers improve their spelling, grammar, word usage and punctuation.

My skills have developed over many years of reading and responding to student work, and in coaching students to develop clear and accurate writing skills.

I am offering an editing service for my fellow writers. I researched various pricing strategies, and have developed what I believe is a reasonable chart of per page cost. The service I found that estimates easily and quickly on a per page, per word basis can be found by searching the phrase "pricing for editing."  I encourage you to visit various services and enter your numbers, to check my pricing chart for comparison.
