What does English editing include?
Our English editing takes your text to native level and goes well beyond simple error correction.
Awkward phrasing, unnatural word order and non-idiomatic expressions are rewritten so that the text reads naturally.
Arguments and paragraph structure are reviewed for logical flow, clear transitions and a consistent focus.
Spelling, grammar and punctuation are corrected according to the standard you choose, American or British English.
All corrections appear as Word tracked changes, so you can follow and accept or reject each one. We edit every level: bachelor, master and doctoral work.
English editing for theses, papers and journal submissions
English as the language of academic writing demands a lot in style and precision. Writers whose first language is not English often produce grammatically correct sentences that still do not sound like a native speaker. Reviewers notice this immediately, especially at international journals. A professional English edit closes that gap.
This is also relevant if you study in Germany and write your thesis in English, or if you translate your own German text and want it checked by a native speaker. Our editors are matched to your subject, so that terminology is used consistently.
Who benefits most?
- Authors submitting articles to international journals
- Students writing a bachelor or master thesis in English
- Researchers preparing conference papers
- Companies with English reports, pitches or white papers
- Authors publishing English non-fiction or teaching materials
What is the difference between proofreading and editing in English?
Proofreading takes care of spelling, grammar and punctuation. Editing goes further and also improves style, clarity and coherence, exactly the qualities reviewers pay attention to.
Is the red thread check included for English texts?
Yes, at no extra charge. The coherence check is part of every editing order. We check whether the conclusion answers the research question, whether chapters build on each other and where transitions are missing or statements contradict each other.
American or British English?
Tell us your preferred standard when you upload. For a US journal choose American English; for British or European journals British English is usually the right choice. We apply the chosen standard consistently throughout.
How does it work?
You upload your Word document and a native-speaker editor who knows your subject area revises it. The text comes back with all changes as tracked changes, so you can accept or reject each adjustment.

Top value for money
“I booked a 48-hour express editing job. On Saturday, after only 18 hours, the corrected work came back. It was corrected in great detail and the document was full of markings. Not only the mistakes I had missed were marked, but also new suggestions on sentence structure and style. After going through the suggested changes more closely, I accepted almost all of them.”
A great experience
“It really was a great experience and absolutely worth the money. I ordered on Tuesday evening at 9 pm and received the corrected work with feedback on Saturday at 3 pm. The corrections and comments were very coherent, and above all word repetitions, grammar and phrasing could be improved. I can only recommend it.”
Very satisfied with the editing
“I ordered editing for my term paper. I accepted all changes in the edited version and am very satisfied with the result.”

Which kinds of text do you edit?
Scientific articles and papers, bachelor and master theses, dissertations, company texts, reports, application documents and more. Please tell us your subject area when you upload.
Can you prepare a text for journal submission?

How quickly do I get my text back?
Standard delivery takes 5 days. Express in 48 or 24 hours is also available, including weekends and public holidays. The deadline starts with your order. See express proofreading.
How do I submit a LaTeX document?
Export it as a compiled PDF and upload that. DOCX files are edited directly with tracked changes.
What is the difference from English proofreading?
Proofreading checks spelling, grammar and punctuation. Editing also improves style, flow, clarity and coherence, which matters most for texts read by native speakers or international reviewers.
Is specialist terminology checked?
Yes. Editors are assigned by subject. They know the conventions and typical terminology of the field and make sure terms are used consistently.
Can you also translate my text?
Yes. If you want your German text translated into English, we offer professional translation for academic work, also by subject translators.
Is my text treated confidentially?
Yes. Only the assigned editor has access to your text. After the order is completed, your upload is deleted automatically, after 7 days at the latest.
Do I need an account?
No. Upload your file, choose the service and delivery time, pay securely, and the result arrives by email.
Can I submit a mix of German and English?
For mixed texts, for example a German thesis with an English abstract, please mark the parts separately. English parts are edited by a native-speaker editor, German parts by a German subject editor.

Personal feedback is part of the service
We do not work silently in the background on your text. We comment on what we notice:
- Comments on problematic or unclear passages, right in the document
- Individual feedback, not just silent corrections
- Concrete hints on writing style and expression
We refine expression, grammar and structure. We never write whole passages for you: that would be ghostwriting.
