I accept payment by cash, bank transfer, cheque and PayPal. Payment by PayPal* is subject to a charge of 4.5% for payment under £100.
Due to an increase in no-payments and no-shows, all lessons are pre-paid. The booking(s) will be confirmed when I have received the payment (cash, bank transfer or PayPal*) or when the cheque has been cleared by my bank.

FRENCH PROOFREADING • FRENCH COPY-EDITING • ENGLISH PROOFREADING • ENGLISH COPY-EDITING

I offer two levels of services in English and French:
• Basic: proofreading
• Advanced: copy-editing

Because each document is unique in the amount of work required, I need to see your document before I can give you a quote. The rate is based on the:
- language (English or French),
- complexity of the text,
- author’s writing skills,
- author’s proficiency in English/French,
- legibility of the document (e.g. a higher rate will be applied to a handwritten document that is not very legible),
- and deadline.

My rates are normally calculated per word (minimum charge of 1,000 words) but I am also happy to negotiate an hourly rate or a set price for large volume of work. Reduced rate for documents over 5,000 words.  

Payment: % of the total fee is due in advance upon acceptance of the quote. No work will be started until I receive the payment. I will notify you of the completion of the work and send you an invoice for the remaining balance. The balance will be due before I can release the completed work. I will email you the finished work at no extra cost. When a hard copy is required, consumables costs (i.e. paper, ink, envelope and postage) will be added to the price. The fee is not refundable but I am happy to correct, free of charge, any errors left in the final document if notified within 5 working days of the work delivered to you.

I accept payment by cash, bank transfer and PayPal*.

Please e-mail your document and deadline for a quote. For material sent by post, please enclose a stamped and self-addressed envelope/jiffy bag, so that I can return the material safely to you.

- number of speakers (for audio/video documents),
- and deadline.

Transcription rates
My charges are calculated per recorded audio/video minute. There is a minimum charge of 15 minutes for audio and video recordings. Verbatim transcription (i.e. omitting the ‘ums’, ‘errs’, ‘you knows’, ‘kind of’, ‘sort of’, repetitions due to hesitation, laughs, coughs, etc.) is not included but can be done upon request. Please add 25p/minute for a verbatim transcription.
