DIRECTORS
Prof VT Zengele/Co-founder and Director:
I do both language, content editing and the pre-examination of manuscripts since I have successfully supervised more than 40 theses and dissertations. I have examined more than 40 theses and dissertations nationally and internationally. I have been appointed as an arbiter where there is no consensus among examiners as well.
I use computer software for technical editing as professional tools before commencing with standard editing. I edit content by providing a review of the work submitted, the use of academic language and reference list till the manuscript is print ready for submission. Upon completion, I present to you both the edited and the final editions after the proof of payment has been received.
If you do not have university funding or bursary for this project, you may opt to do your own formatting to reduce costs.
I am also open to negotiation for a lower rate with sincere clients. If you accept my quote, I will send the invoice and only begin working once you have accepted. Our company provides a 10% discount to clients without funding
I assist clients with proposal writing, academic writing and article writing for publication.
