Dear Employer, My name is Elisabeth. I'm a proofreader and translator, and I have a Master's Degree in Languages and Translation (both English and German) from the University La Sapienza in Rome, where I live. I also studied DaF (German as Foreign Language) at the University Friedrich Schiller in Jena, Germany. My greatest strength is the accuracy. Moreover, my punctuality and excellent presentation skills are the reasons why I've chosen to bid on this project. At the moment I'm working as a proofreader for a US Publishing, but I'm also looking for other projects. Due to privacy agreement, I cannot attach any Word file about my previous works, but as soon as you start a chat conversation, I will send you a screenshot of a previous work. In my profile page, you can find every information about my professional experience and education. If you need more information, please contact me. Best regards, Elisabeth

Hello, Here's a sample though the whole document along with other samples are available in my portfolio; visiting my portfolio will be worth your while! I hope they impress you enough to hire me. MANUSCRIPT: The Process of Academic Writing Academic writing is undoubtedly the principal method of conveying and presenting evidence based ideas, information and hypotheses in an scholarly setting. It’s used by intellectuals and academics in every discipline to communicate their views and theories to their peers and to their respective scientific and academic communities. Composing a captive, coherent and impactful academic paper is an intricate, highly dynamic and tremendously complex process. Thusly, in formulating such academic writings and publications well-defined stages and processes are followed in a cyclical manner which this essay will attempt to analyse. The three foremost stages of academic writing are the pre-writing, drafting and revision stages. The pre-writing stage is the bedrock of any respectable academic paper and it is traditionally defined by it’s outline of the central ideas, extensive research on the subject matter and, if required, an adoption of a informed position on the topic. Additionally, in this stage the personal characteristics, culture, socioeconomic background and politics of the audience must be examined and evaluated in terms of their possible effects on the views presented in the paper. Furthermore, relevant information and figures are always obtained from credible sources, such as, reputable journals and circulars after particularly analysing the potential biases of the sources. For instance, one would be foolish to seek reliable climate change research from a think tank funded by the fossil fuel industry.

Additionally, in this stage, the type, personal characteristics, culture, socioeconomic background and political ideologies of the audience must be examined and evaluated based on how the views presented in the paper will be received. Furthermore, relevant information and figures should always be obtained from credible sources such as, reputable journals and circulars after particularly analyzing the credibility of these sources. Take a case where one seeks reliable climate change research from a Think Tank funded by a Fossil Fuel Industry. Foolhardy, isn't it? Thank you for your time. Yours sincerely, Kingsley Usa
