Title: @English native speakers: Proofreader wanted!
Post by: SF-Junky on December 27, 2012, 09:42:52 am
Good day,

I intend to do a term abroad at the University of British Columbia next year. So I wonder whether one of the English native speakers here could have a look at my motivational letter to check it for grammar mistakes, typos, bad language and all that. It's only about one page long so it shouldn't be too much work. Ideally, you only have to read through it once, but I supposed that depends on how good my English is. :p

I'd send it to you via PM.

I can do it but I can only get back to you in the morning as it's almost 1am here

It looks like you have enough volunteers, but I'd be willing to do it too if for some reason none of the others work out :P

I speak/use American English instead of British though, if that matters to you.

UBC?  Hope you like rain and lots of it.  *shudder*

Looks like you have enough proof-readers.

Scourge of Ages and Mort already helped me a lot, but thank you for your readiness to help. :)

And I'm aware of the climate in Raincouver. :p
