So after a discussion in the VIP DCC, I was thinking of contributing to the Creative Writing section of PC; however, with limited time, I was hoping to start by beta-reading people's fanfics / creative works. As Slayer puts it, it's basically reading your work before you post it on PC and thereby offering suggestions, critique, etc. while looking over grammar, punctuation, etc.
That said, I'm very good with grammar, punctuation, form, etc. I achieved 97% in Grade 12 Academic English, and on an essay I submitted for a fourth-year Environmental Studies class on Aquaculture, I received a grade of 94%. That's without any university English courses or university education altogether. Furthermore, I proof-read my boyfriend's work a lot (he's in fourth year university), and the investment has always returned grades between 90&100%. I've also acted as a teacher's assistant for English in Grade 12 by proof-reading and actually marking students' essays and projects through Grades 9-12. That was a lot of fun and really enforced my decision to pursue teaching as a profession.
I'm just curious if anyone wants to have their fanfic or their creative work proof-read at all, like a request? Or even essays, projects, etc. I'm really good at this stuff. I've helped a lot of students succeed in various subjects, even the sciences, in the last few years, and I'd love to help other people out, too, in my spare time :)
I can also tutor in French and English, as I am bilingual, too, if you're in school (preferably secondary school or university/college-level work). Again, essays, projects, creative writing, grammar, punctuation, form, etc. would be what I'd be reviewing and critiquing.
That said, I'll probably do random reviewing, too, but if anyone specifically wants something looked at (or is wanting tutoring), I'll prioritize beta-reading requests made here, through VM or PM, etc. first and foremost. Overall, whether it be school-related or related to Creative Writing at PC, it'll be beneficial :) and I'm eager to help, so!
:P
As volume may wreak havoc, I'll only be doing three requests at a time for beta-reading. I don't have a cap for tutoring as that's separate altogether and requires different things, different blocks of time, etc.
