CASE STUDY
 
Malaikah,

Application and Personal Statement for the University of Cambridge


JOB REQUIRED: 
Malaikah had taken a year out to re-apply to university with an emphasis on obtaining an interview at the University of Cambridge.

OUTCOME:
Malaikah supplied us with a comprehensive personal statement to go with her university statement. Although it was full of interesting ideas, our editor Daniel discussed the work with her and then undertook a full edit with the objective of expressing her ideas more clearly for the reader.

EVALUATION:
“Wow, I asked Dan to make a few suggestions but he really spent some time on my personal statement for university applications.
I can’t believe it, my statement looks beautiful now, and it reflected ALL the ideas that I attempted to portray. I’m so happy with it and I’ve got an interview at Cambridge! I can’t even express how thankful and grateful I am for Dan, truly.”
Specialist in the social and human sciences

With 15 years of experience editing MA, PhD-level research, academic books, chapters and journal articles, Daniel specialises in the following domains of research, broadly encompassing the Humanities or the Social and Political Sciences:

  • Political Philosophy, International Relations & Sociology
  • Economics, Marketing & Management Studies
  • Philosophy, Psychology & Education Studies 
  • Literature, European Languages & Film Studies
  • And scientific research which requires significant English language prose in its written presentation

  • “Dan accompanied me throughout my coursework and proofread several drafts of my Final Year dissertation. He was knowledgeable on many issues in contemporary art as well as art history. He helped me a lot with my dissertation on cinema, which was challenging over the lockdown period. He is a patient and thorough proofreader who was also able to restructure my work to make it read much better.”

    "Daniel helped to proofread my Master's dissertation but he also edits my gallery programmes because I am a working artist.
    He understands contemporary art and the style of language needed but he is also a very good editor of academic English.
    I am very pleased with Daniel's work and would recommend him to everyone studying and working in culture."
