Certifications: BA (Hons) in English literature from University of the West of England (UWE), Bristol, UK. Cambridge Certificate in Teaching English as a Foreign Language to Adults. Over 10 years' experience editing and content writing. Over 10 years' experience teaching English as a foreign language.
Announcements: I have been in the UK since April 2024. My father died at the end of May, and I am now caring for my elderly mother. I would like to do some work, but I cannot always respond to requests in a timely manner. I would like to accept requests on the understanding that I cannot always deliver promptly (but I will certainly deliver within the deadline). I hope this is acceptable. Thank you for your kind understanding. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ***Please note that I may not be available at weekends or now and again when my eyes are fatigued and need a rest. I apologise to my lovely customers for any inconvenience.*** ***Please note that if an order comes in the evening, I will usually deliver it the next day. I try to rest my eyes and exercise from around 6 pm, Tokyo time.*** -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------How can I help you? I'm based in Thailand, which is 2 hours behind JST. I'm usually available most days except weekends and holidays. I'm a British writer, editor and proofreader with a BA in English literature and over 10 years' experience in professional writing and editing for beginner level, advanced level, exam preparation and other purposes. I specialise in non-native English speakers' work, and I'm delighted to assist you with your work, whether it is website content, a scientific paper, an email for work, a speech, a job application, a university assignment, English for the office, English for personal development or any other type of text. I write and edit British and American English, so feel free to request either. If you don't request any particular style, I'll keep your text consistent with whichever version of English it appears to be. Please feel free to give further details on the editing style you prefer, formal or casual, and rest assured that your text is confidential. I promise to deliver prompt, professional and perfect work, and I'm happy to work with you to answer your questions and ensure your satisfaction with the edit.
Hobbies/Travel: Above all, I love reading (mostly novels and prize-winning literature), running, going swimming or paddling around in the sea, eating delicious food, learning Thai, watching movies, listening to music and singing and playing the guitar to myself (because I'm shy). I love anywhere where I can see the sea. The countries I liked visiting the most are Australia, India, Thailand and Hong Kong. My favourite places in the UK are Devon and Cornwall because of the beautiful natural scenery and beaches. I haven't been to Japan but would love to visit in the future and experience the fresh seafood, cherry blossoms and onsen. The Mediterranean is also on my list for food, drink and beautiful scenery.
Message from the instructor: I would like to keep the text as close to your meaning as possible whilst making it perfectly expressed, natural, fluent English. I will gently inform you as to why I have made each change. I will also give you suggestions for alternative phrases. I am a British content writer and copy-editor with over 10 years' experience in writing and editing. I write and edit American English, too, if preferred. I also taught English to non-native speakers for over 10 years. I love English and would like to help you to express yourself in perfect English and build your confidence.

Dear Janey, Thank you very much for your correction and the piece of advice! Yes, the spell check function always helps me when I write a email. That is why I still cannot spell "available," "definitely" and "necessary" correctly by myself because when I cannot spell a word, I always copy and paste from the internet. From now on, I will use this function as a you-should-learn notification. I'm very glad to see you here for me. Again, I appreciate your help. Best regards, Ayako Nara

Thank you for your corrections and kind comments, Janey! I don’t watch English news because it’s not fun and difficult, but maybe it’s one of best way to learn English! Especially I can’t take enough time for watching movies recently. I’ll try it from today. Thank you! :)
