Editing & Writing

​A Variety of Services for Academics and Other Professionals 

Dr. Adina M. Yoffie will help you edit and polish your ​academic and non-academic work. She will improve your grammar, syntax, and word usage and will rewrite awkward sentences, improve your style, and clarify your main points. 

​
She has extensive experience working with ESL clients, for whom she improves document flow, word choice, clarity of ideas, and sentence composition.
Editing services offered include (two or more services may be combined):  
  • Basic copyediting: Improving grammar, syntax, word usage, punctuation, subject/verb agreement, and tense consistency.
  • Stylistic editing: Copyediting your document while focusing on enhancing and improving writing style (clarifying main points, eliminating wordiness and jargon, fixing sentence structure, and improving paragraph sequencing and document flow).
  • Substantive editing: Polishing and organizing the document and evaluating content, such as strength and support of arguments and missing or redundant information. Writers of books, essays, theses, and dissertations have found this service especially helpful. 
  • Proofreading: Reading a nearly finished document and correcting it for typos and other minor errors.  ​
Over the course of a year, Adina edited my entire dissertation from Introduction to Conclusion. She made grammar edits and advised me on structure while giving me the space to speak as the expert on my topic . . . I wouldn't have been able to finish my dissertation without Adina!" -- Lisa

  • Theses and dissertations
  • Academic books and articles

I love working with Adina. She is extremely knowledgeable and very patient. I am a non-native-English-speaking professional, and we have been working on my writing for business documents, including my resume, my cover letter and content for my website. I highly recommend her." -- Eduardo Nemeth
