Science Thesis Proofreading

I’m preparing my sciences-based thesis for submission and want a fresh set of expert eyes on the full manuscript. Your task is to proofread the document in English—grammar, punctuation, flow, and consistency—while respecting the technical terminology of my field. I write and speak both English and Arabic, so if you’re comfortable handling short bilingual sections such as the abstract or key terms that appear in both languages, that will be a plus, though the core text is entirely English. Please work directly in Word using Track Changes, then return two files: one showing every edit and one clean, ready-to-submit version. A seven-day turnaround from the moment we start keeps me on schedule. Acceptance criteria • All edits visible in Track Changes, no unresolved comments • Readability improved without altering scientific meaning • Final file free of spelling or grammatical errors (target: near-zero Grammarly flags) • Bilingual abstract, where touched, reads naturally in both languages Let me know about your experience with academic theses or dissertations in the sciences and your typical word-count capacity per day. I’m eager to work with someone who can polish this document to publication quality.

Public-Friendly Technical Report Writing

I’m preparing a full technical report that must read smoothly for a general-public audience. The content will be grounded in solid research and data, yet explained with clear language, logical structure, and everyday examples so non-specialists stay engaged from start to finish. Here’s what I need from you: • A concise outline that frames the topic, core questions, and recommended flow. • The complete report (approx. 4,000–6,000 words) written in plain English, free of jargon, with any essential terminology briefly defined. • Simple, well-labeled visuals or tables where they improve comprehension. • A one-page executive summary distilling key findings. Please tell me about similar technical reports you’ve produced for lay readers, the main tools you prefer (e.g., Word, LaTeX, Google Docs), and your typical turnaround for the first draft. I’ll share the exact subject matter and reference material once we start so you can dive straight into the research and writing phase.
