I hold a Doctorate in Agriculture and a Graduate Diploma in Further Education and Training. Therefore, I have an excellent understanding of both scientific writing and the research process. I am the author of a number of articles that have been published in scientific journals and am also experienced in other forms of academic writing including research theses. I was employed as an associate lecturer at The University of Queensland for over four years, where I had the opportunity to mark student assignments and share with postgraduate students in their writing process. Over the past three years I have done proof reading and editing of assignments, masters and Ph.D. theses for postgraduate students, especially students from overseas for whom English is a second language. A thesis on entrepreneurship that I edited passed without correction and has since been published as a book.

Alyssa Ryan has a strong background in creative writing, academic writing, literary, cultural, and communications studies, and English as a second language. She has also had experience as both a creative and an academic editor, and lots of experience marking papers! She offers a very comprehensive edit on both macro and micro levels. Micro Edits are included in the in-text comments. These edits will correct grammar, spelling, punctation, and sentence structure. They will make sure verb construction is parallel and sentences are clear and direct. At this level we will also suggest which words and phrases are good and which could be revised and clarified, and comment on your individual paragraph structure. Macro Edits will be in the form of the written report. General conclusions will be drawn about the assignment as a whole, quoting examples from your assignment to illustrate the points. This will include an evaluation of the overall structure of your assignment, the quality of the argument, and the style of the writing.
