Rachael Churchill – Editor

I'm a skilled and accurate copy editor and proofreader with an excellent command of the English language and an eagle eye for typos. I specialise in editing technical, academic and educational material. I've worked on books, textbooks, papers, theses and articles. I've also proofread syllabuses and exam papers in mathematics and sciences for a leading UK exam board.

I'm a native UK English speaker with a degree in Linguistics and Mathematics from the University of Cambridge. I also have strong IT skills and experience working in software development.

As well as fixing typos and grammatical errors, I can rewrite stilted or non-native English so that it flows better and sounds idiomatic, and I can provide feedback on the accuracy of the content and how clear and comprehensible it will be to the target audience.

Testimonials:

"I heartily recommend Rachael as a maths/science proofreader and editor. She has a fantastic eye for errors, and she can spot both general proofreading errors like typos and technical mistakes such as faulty equations. "
– Annette Stuart, Cambridge International Examinations

"[Rachael] did a superb job and it was a pleasure to work with her. She has a very sharp proof-reading eye, and has a good sense of what makes text easy to understand. She also has a very good grasp of technology. She picked up two problems with the code in my book - something that I did not expect and greatly appreciated. I strongly recommend her for STEM and technical projects, and I will ask her to help with my future books."
