"Writing in a foreign language is not an easy task for most of
people, let alone when it is about a thesis where both content and
form have to be flawless. Derek's suggestions were promptly
accepted, ensured more clarity and avoided distraction that could
have been caused by an improper use of the English language"

"Derek's
help in the editing of my thesis was precious and reliable. Although
I have a good command of the English language, having a native
speaker to proof read my materials has been a great relief and saved
me a considerable amount of time. Derek's corrections are very
accurate and pertinent and he is furthermore very fast, which is of
great help when one is working under pressing deadlines."

"
I have greatly benefited from Derek’s assistance and I can only
recommend his work for being of very high quality, extremely
thorough and prompt."

"Working with Dr. Birch
was a very useful experience. His personal and professional attitude towards
my request was thorough and diligent. He not only edited my
grammar mistakes but also gave his recommendations on
structure and style. He dedicated time to talk through all the
corrections making sure I understood the underlying reasons.
Before taking my paper for editing he spent time determining what exactly I wanted to achieve.
His recommendations were very useful for my future assignments
as he explained small nuances of English language, which can
be critical in academic writing."
Almaz Ahmadova (successful PhD thesis)
"Your proof-reading took into account the context in which the
dissertation was written i.e. the area (Medicine). It wasn't just
aimed at making good sentences in English but also making sense in
science. And it was quick!"

"I was very impressed and satisfied with the quick and
detailed services provided by Dr. Derek Birch. I thought his service was wonderful! I know that it made a
huge difference in my dissertation. I would recommend this service to,
in particular, international students. He will help making your
pieces of writing shiny at the final stage of writing."

"What I found specially helpful was the "argument"
correction you gave me, particularly in the Conclusion. It was very helpful for
me to get "academic" suggestions as well as language
corrections."
Sigurður Guðjonsson (successful MPhil dissertation)
"I highly recommend Derek! I have been an engineer for over 20 years and coming to study at Cambridge has been a life-long dream come true.
I never learned how to truly write in the proper academic style so finding Derek has been wonderful. He really helped me improve my writing.
I will continue to rely on his help and expertise as I pursue a PhD degree."
