ESL Editing in Phoenix
Phoenix is one of the most linguistically diverse cities in the United States. Large communities of Spanish, Navajo, Korean, Mandarin, Tagalog, and Hindi speakers live across the metro, and ASU and other universities enroll substantial international graduate student and postdoctoral populations. Many of these residents produce academic and professional writing in English as a second language, and the structural differences between their first languages and English produce predictable patterns that experienced editors know how to address without losing the writer's voice. See Editor World's English editing service for non-native speakers.
- ESL academic editing: Journal articles, theses, and dissertations edited with understanding of the grammar patterns that arise from each language background.
