Are you struggling to publish your documents in fluent written English?

Hi, my name is Edward Spek, and I'm a native English speaker and professional English language expert.

English Revision 2.0 is a document revision service for English language content publishers whose first language is NOT English, such as university professors who regularly publish academic papers for English language journals.

My list of clients currently includes members of the faculty at The University of Seville.

To be taken seriously as an author writing in the English language, you must make sure your content is fluent. If English is not your native language, it can be worrisome whether your writing is 'up to snuff'. That's where I come in.

What it IS:

• a revision service for document written in English by authors who are not native English speakers
• a means to ensure that your documents are presented in one of the three standard publication versions of English

What it is NOT:

• a ghost-writing service
