Daniel Rayburn
Director, Senior Editor and Translator
Graduating from the University of Oxford reading Politics, Philosophy and Economics, Dan started academic proofreading as a Masters student in Political Philosophy at the University of Exeter. He then had the opportunity to study in Paris to improve his second professional and academic language.
An 8-year experience living in France greatly enhanced his skills as an English-French translator, editor and international copywriter. He now organises and oversees editing jobs for students, researchers and companies. As a side interest, Dan has translated two books of philosophy and fiction from French into English, and continues to work as an editor, content writer and language teacher.
CASE STUDY Joseph, South Africa
Leader of a Fiscal Institution for Macroeconomic and Fiscal Research & Analysis
JOB REQUIRED:
As a second language English speaker, the improvements I required were largely in grammar and vocabulary. There were also some sentence structuring as well.
Generally, I would always encourage proofreading a research or analysis write-up. The output readers’ education background is various, therefore having APS helped to ensure the regardless their background they are still able to comprehend the paper.
OUTCOME:
Academic Proofreading Services is very reliable, given that analysis and research output is mean for a lay person’ consumption. I was happy with the accuracy of the work done! Despite having giving Daniel short notice to request the proofreading. The proofread work was returned on requested time, within 48 hours. It is good value for money.
EVALUATION:
The proofreader’s knowledge and understanding on the topic (public economics) was fair. However, the intention to bring someone without thorough background about the topic was deliberate as this ensures that the paper is accessible to an average reader. But also the proofreader has been involved with this topic over the years and has provided excellent proofreading. I will continue to use the proofreading services and would recommend Daniel to friends and colleagues.
