Oyaba O.

I am a multiskilled publishing professional. I specialise in copy writing, copy editing and proofreading, but can also undertake a variety of online occupations where diligence, accuracy, English language fluency and a range of computer software fluencies are key. I am a British native speaker of English and a UK educated: • BA (Hons.) degree holder (1990) • CELTA (Cambridge English Language certified) English language teacher (2003) • accredited Proofreader and Copy-Editor (2020) As a writer, I apply my artistry to academic writing, editorial writing, reports, sales copy, online content writing and SEO writing. I am a published children’s author, newspaper columnist and a social commentary writer. As a copy-editor and proofreader, I lend a detail-oriented eye and can offer a near-forensic review of any written work. I guarantee conformity to the highest standards of spelling and grammar. I generally default to the British English standard but, if asked, can apply the American English standard quite easily too. I further ensure that all work passed by me is fully accessible to the intended readership, in terms of clarity and presentation, while retaining the voice and authority of its author. As an SEO content provider, I am best suited to writing (and rewriting) articles about: Relationships – Entertainment – Mind, Body and Soul – Travel – How to’s – Politics – Development issues – Fundraising – Editorials – Consumer Affairs – etc. As a virtual assistant, I am excited to share my skills and experience which are widely adaptable to a range of modern work applications. I am trained or proficient in: 1. Touch typing 2. Microsoft Word 3. Microsoft Excel 4. Microsoft Powerpoint 5. Adobe PDF platforms 6. Adobe Photoshop 7. Serif page-making software 8. Wordpress website building I can be trusted to comprehend the task at hand and to execute it faithfully, accurately and within specified time frames. I hope you will consider me for your next project.
