Saving the word.

Grammar Guardians specialises in what we like to call “reading and writing” services. READING SERVICES consist of commercial and academic proofreading and editing (including layout). Commercial proofreading and editing are provided for books, articles, advertisements, websites, business plans, operational business documents, financial reports, etc. Academic proofreading and editing are performed on masters’ degrees, PhD dissertations, and scholarly articles. We are familiar with Harvard, SAGE Harvard, and APA referencing and citation methods. WRITING SERVICES comprise business plans, feasibility studies, company profiles, transcription, translation, article writing, copy writing, data entry, the creation of PowerPoint presentations, etc. Our slogan is “Helping you make a good impression” because the value of a well-written, properly presented article, thesis, website, business plan, etc. cannot be underestimated - whether the text aims to seek funding, obtain a passing grade, or draw customers. Our secondary services include video editing and voice-over work. The owners of Grammar Guardians are Ms Jeanne van Aswegen and Mr Rudi Steenkamp. Jeanne possesses 10 years of experience as a small enterprise specialist and business advisor, as well as 5 years of experience in academic proofreading and editing. Rudi is an experienced language practitioner with 10 years of experience in the fields of commercial content creation, commercial and academic proofreading, editing, journalism, videography, voice-over work, and photography. We work together on all projects because we believe that two heads are better than one; therefore the employer receives the great deal of “2 for the price of 1” when making use of Grammar Guardians.

Experience

Background

Grammar Guardians
Jan 2010 - Feb 2015 (5 years, 1 month)
Jeanne possesses 10 years of experience as a small enterprise specialist and business consultant, as well as 5 years of experience in academic proofreading and editing. Rudi is an experienced language practitioner with 10 years of experience in the fields of commercial content creation, proofreading, editing, journalism, videography, voice-over work, and photography. Jeanne started the business in 2010 as a means of practicing her love for the written word. Rudi joined Grammar Guardians in 2012. The business quickly gained a reputation for high-quality, professional work; which is evident from the amount of repeat-business, positive word-of-mouth promotion, and references we receive from satisfied clients. We stand by the quality of our work, we provide aftercare on any product or service offered, and we guarantee the confidentiality of the client’s work; we believe these three aspects contribute greatly to our clients’ satisfaction with our work.
