1 editing lesson

I feel I will be a much better writer in all my future works because of the dedication that Patrice shared with me in completing my book. I will certainly pursue Patrice’s editing services in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a thorough, flexible and understanding editor. You will get so much more than just editing. The consulting Patrice provides while editing is above and beyond what you pay for.

As a working professional in the editing industry, she knows all the necessary workflows and best practices that are essential for success in the real world. Sasha's deep knowledge of Premiere Pro, combined with her practical approach to teaching, helped me to build the skills and confidence I needed to take on editing projects with ease. If you're looking for an editing tutor who can help you succeed in the real world, I highly recommend working with Sasha.

6 editing lessons

I originally contacted Alani for assistance with editing of academic writing. While I was counting on comments on proofreading and basic editing, what I did not imagine was that she would also be such a wonderful resource for commenting on the style, research and structure of the writing. She is as well read as they come and was familiar with the authors that I was working on in both Italian and French and made invaluable comments that greatly improved the quality of my writing.
