Antonia Maxwell – Editor

I successfully created and delivered a well-received adult evening course in copy-editing and proofreading for adult learners. This was based on two-hourly sessions over six weeks. I developed the material for this course from my own industry knowledge and experience, along with my knowledge of instructional design based on my familiarity with materials I have helped produce for the adult education market.
