Parasol Academic Editing was very easy to work with and responsive to my needs. We were able to communicate and coordinate quite effectively online despite our very different time zones. As a non-native English speaker, I appreciated the way Dr. Solorzano helped bring my journal articles in line with standards for English expected by editors, and he also helped identify and address important elements in my argument that needed to be stronger. We were able to complete several articles in a short time. I would recommend Parasol Academic Editing to non-native and native speakers alike. |
"Ramon's insightful and strategic editing made my book manuscript more readable and less redundant. Having worked with several editors in the past, I found Ramón has an outstanding ability to pay attention to detail while never losing sight of the overall thesis. Aside from the great work that he did with some preliminary drafts of my book, I think it is important to mention how easily Ramón navigates two different worlds: English and Spanish. He not only corrected a number of my translations, but made them flow wonderfully throughout the text." –– Assistant Professor, Historian, University of Massachusetts-Amherst |
