Let Me Be Your First and Next Proofreader, You'll Find No One Else Next

Hi, Dhuke here. I'm an education student majoring in English.


I've been a proofreader since 4th grade with my experience in Campus Journalism as our school paper's English Copyreading and Headline Writing journalist. Later on, I became Editor-In-Chief with the same role. I continued high school the same way, however, I didn't pursue the position of EIC since I found much productive means of spending my time in high school.


I have experience in both proofreading articles and student works with the help of my current college program. I am also an officer of our college's highest student governing body specifically as one of the congresspersons of the legislative department. This provided me with ample amount of knowledge in the grammatical structure of laws and legislations as well as the basic parliamentary procedure. I mainly work weekends which allows me to pour more time on the task at hand.


On a side note, I am also currently writing a story of my own. I'm having a hard time finishing it though due to a lack of sufficient material and support. I also write poems from time to time which I truly enjoy since it doesn't take much time as long as I have that sudden burst of inspiration.


That's all I can say about me that might interest you with my services. Hit me up if you're interested in working hand in hand with your work, I'll be happy to help. For a price of course.

I work on the data given to me accurately with given deadline

Hello,

My name is Happiness, am 15 years old.

I can aid you in proofreading and typing. Although I am young, I have one year of experience in this typing and proofreading job.

I am not that of a fast typer, but I can assure you that I will do my best if you were to hire me.

I just finished secondary school and am awaiting my entry exam into the university

. I hope you will be willing to give me tasks and wait for my performance, and I promise I won't disappoint you.

About my typing experience, I served at a computer-based store for 6 months, learnt a lot of shortcuts and other typing tools, and I also learnt a little bit of graphic designing, the use of Excel, and PowerPoint. I am currently learning how to do data analysis in Excel and going to Power BI, a Microsoft tool used by most office workers. The main reason I am learning all this is to keep myself occupied, so you can understand that I may be young, but I am experienced in many features.

I help others, or should I say people, emotionally. I can say I am an expert in this area. Well, I can say I learnt from the best, am an easy-going person full of a radiant smile, and always adaptable. I am straightforward, kind, but have some issues in academics. I can say academically, I am 65% active. I love reading novels.

All together, what I am trying to say is that I can handle your task in an effective manner and deliver it to you without problems or errors.


Thank you for choosing me, God bless you.
