About me
I specialise in proofreading, editing, copywriting and voice-overs. I am not a translator.

I am a UK native English speaker, and hold an ONC in Business Studies and CTEFLA qualification. The English language is my daily business and, of course, my profession requires that I have an in-depth knowledge of grammar and vocabulary. I have a keen eye for detail and always aim to provide the highest level of service to my clients.

I have wide experience in the fields of law; building and construction; staff recruitment and related matters; IT; furniture production including production optimization and design software, forestry and railways. I also have experience of copywriting, editing and the writing of IT manuals. In addition I teach Business English to individuals and small groups.

I have worked as a customer service and training manager with a softwarehouse specializing in optimization software for the furniture industry; a recruitment consultant; a contracting sales representative in the construction industry; a police officer, and a forester with the UK Forestry Commission. For the past 10 years I have been working in Frankfurt and the surrounding area under the name 'The English Fox Linguistics'.
