Amy S. – Editor

Copy Editor and Proofreader of all writing genres. I edit any subject, and I will make your writing flow. Academic Instructor of English.

Overview

Hello!

Welcome to my page!

I am an adjunct English Instructor who has taught fundamental writing and grammar skills, English composition, and business writing courses. I also have a background in journalism and publishing.

I enjoy reading literary non-fiction, short stories, and historical fiction in my free time. In graduate school, I studied a wide range of literature from British Victorian literature, to transnational literature. I enjoy research, and I can tackle large or small projects. I have been a freelance proofreader for the last ten years.

I work with writers to help them share their unique voice within error free copy. I am a detail oriented copy editor and proofreader, and I encourage writers to share their best writing. Working with students in the classroom has taught me a great deal of patience. I have developed the skills needed for providing honest yet kind and respectful feedback.

I look forward to hearing about your project,

Amy

Amy had very thoughtful suggestions and helped me a lot with proofreading and editing my text, since English is not my native language. Thank you, Amy.

Amy was great to work with and made me feel like she not only put her knowledge to work but also her heart in it. She was a tremendous help to my work and what a great value. I highly recommend her and I hope to use her again in the future.
