• Do you need to be sure that your text is correct, clear, consistent and effective?
|
Whether you are writing an academic text or a report, a novel or a thesis, an ebook or a journal article, Tika Check can help by proofreading your writing, so that you can be assured that any errors are eliminated. We will make suggestions for improvement, but all final decisions about the wording will be up to you.
Is copy-editing needed? This will ensure not only that the text is correct, but also that it is clearly expressed, consistent, effective and appropriate for the intended audience. Text that incorporates te reo Māori is welcomed, especially if it is primarily written in English. We hesitate to take on work written entirely in te reo. Your readers want to be able to find information quickly and easily in an index. We will carefully analyse the concepts in the text, and create an index that is comprehensive, well structured and easy to use. At Tika Check we provide book indexing services for academic and educational texts and for a variety of social science titles. Glenys has a qualification in indexing from the UK Society of Indexers, and is a member of the Australian and New Zealand Society of Indexers. She has a particular interest in books that focus on Aotearoa New Zealand, and has expertise in Aotearoa history. Click here to view a selection of works indexed recently. |

He kanohi hōmiromiro: an eye for detail "Look no further than someone with eyes like a tomtit as a proofreader. This person is renowned for their eye for detail and quality assurance." * * Hona Black, He iti te kupu: Māori metaphors and Similes, (Oratia Press, 2021), ""Glenys was an absolute find, especially with the added skill of te reo Māori. Glenys's attention to detail, work ethic and commitment to provide top quality copy/proof reading services ensured my dream to self-publish became a reality. I highly recommend her services. Ngā mihi ki a koe, Glenys," Jacqueline Martin |
