Work With Scholars & Professional Editors With PhDs From Top Schools

Fretting over that final draft of your academic manuscript before you send it off for peer review or to the press editor? We know firsthand how nerve-wracking the process can be, and how essential a dispassionate, skilled set of eyes can be. Our team includes published scholars and academics with PhDs from top schools including the University of Oxford and the Sorbonne. Our academic editors have years of experience with writing and editing articles, dissertations and book manuscripts. They will ensure yours is in the best possible shape before reviewers cast their scrutiny on them. After all, you want to make sure you have every chance at publication or a book contract.

We have worked with scholars at universities and research foundations including MIT, Smith College, and the CNRS (France’s national research institute). We’ve also helped many graduate students perfect their theses, dissertations and academic articles prior to submission or defense.

Your Partners in Scholarly Excellence

Just how skilled are our in-house academic editors? One of the Art History book manuscripts we recently handled won a top award following its publication. We’re proud to have helped the author achieve the very best version of her manuscript.

Whether you’re looking for basic copy editing or more detailed feedback on structure and content for your academic book, article or dissertation, our in-house scholars will work closely with you to make them impeccable. We always closely adhere to your required style guide (including MLA, APA or Chicago). We have outstanding references to share, too– in fact, most of our academic manuscripts come to us through word-of-mouth.

Since we are all fluent in French, we make ideal editors for anyone preparing a manuscript that includes elements in French, or that has been translated from French into English and needs careful proofreading. We also have moderate competence in Spanish and German.
