Kateproof offers an affordable and efficient proofreading service

As a member of the SfEP, I follow their code of practice.

My pricing structure is based on the SfEP's suggested hourly rate for professional proofreaders. However, all jobs vary in size and scope so please contact me to discuss a personal rate that suits you and the level of proofreading or editing required.

I am fully proficient in the use of the British Standard Proofreading Symbols. I can mark up hard copies and post them back or everything can be done electronically with annotations on a PDF or track changes on a Word document.

I have experience of proofreading and editing the following types of publications:
  • magazines
  • advertorials
  • booklets and brochures
  • fiction books
  • company reports
  • CVs and application forms
  • websites.

I am fully trained to proofread a wide variety of writing styles and topics, though would consider the following to be particular specialisms as a result of my previous education and work history:
  • German and Spanish language, culture and history
  • politics, political theory and philosophy
  • business and finance reports
  • current affairs and the public sector.


"You did a great proofreading job on my manuscript GROWING UP IN A SMALL AFRICAN VILLAGE. Your attention to details was remarkable. You kept your word and completed the job within schedule. I won't hesitate to recommend you to others."
Dr Robert Peprah-Gyamfi, Author.
