What our customers say
"I'm a PhD student in
Science, so part of my work is to publish research papers. Since my native
language is Chinese, I always get confused when choosing between using or not
using the mysterious article - 'the'. And sometimes my sentences are
unnecessarily long. As you might imagine, my readers may get confused too. This
is very dangerous in scientific publishing because small grammar errors and
ambiguous sentences not only degrade the value of my research but also increases
the probability of being declined. So, the first thing after I have done a draft
paper is sending it to EDIT for proofreading. I'm always impressed with the
quality of the work that John has done. John has a really great understanding of
science terms so in addition to fixing my grammar errors, he can also find out
logical errors. I started using EDIT's services when I was a junior graduate
student and I have never been disappointed. So, thank you very much John!"
Robert, PhD candidate at a New Zealand University

"After wasting hours with variations of words to resurrect our web site,
I came across EDIT via the web and was very pleased to have done so. John was
immediately responsive and after briefly interviewing some of our key staff was
quickly able to get a feel for the culture of the company and rewrote the entire
content of our site within a few days. Highly recommended…"
Paul Kearney, Teltech Ltd (www.teltech.co.nz)
