Hi, I'm a freelance writer and editor. My main focus has been on promotional web content and B2B marketing. As such, know what to look for in a good article for a B2B magazine. I have excellent English skills (I was an English teacher before becoming a freelancer), so I can easily spot and correct any mistakes in spelling, grammar and punctuation. Here are the sentences you wanted fixed, with an explanation in brackets: Singapore doubles bond volume to $31.5bn in 2012 (The usual abbreviation of 'billion is 'bn', not 'b'.) Singapore permanent residents slammed with stricter rules on subletting flats (Words in the middle of sentences, that aren't proper nouns, should not be capitalised.) Here's why parental leave is "too complicated" ('Parental leave' is referred to in the abstract as a collective noun, so there's no need for pluralisation. Obviously once the pluralisation is fixed, 'is' is prefereable to 'are'.) Sales were only at S$128m. ('Sales' is a plural and so requires 'were'. Additionally, depending on the context, it may be appropriate to move 'at'; I have left it here as I do not know the context!) Why hopes are fading for a fatter wage hike in 2014 (The sentence may not strictly require 'a', but it reads better with than without.) 5 important news about the Singapore aviation industry you shouldn't miss ('Singapore aviation industry' requires the definite article ('the').) I hope that has adequately demonstrated my abilities! Thanks! Frank.

Thank you for the opportunity to bid on your ongoing proofreading project. My career history includes more than a decade in print journalism and corporate communications. My articles were read by hundreds of thousands of people daily so accuracy was always a top priority. I have a strong eye for detail. I hate grammar and spelling errors; I will hunt them down and destroy them. As a communications officer I was in charge of writing and editing content for public websites and shareholder magazines. I have not included my entire resume because I have had quite negative experiences on freelancer.com when sharing personal information, but I am more than willing to expand on any of my qualifications with you directly. Here are the sentences edited as requested. I am assuming they are headlines because they aren't structured as complete sentences.

Thank you!

Apart from my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and Law, I have a Master's Degree in Comparative Child Law and to obtain it I had to do thorough research, writing and editing. I am also a published author in an academic journal, “Southern African Public Law”, volume 27(2)2012, titled, “The limitation of the educator’s right to strike by the child’s right to basic education”. Further, as a temporary lecturer at the North West University (NWU) in South Africa, I had a few students successfully completing their academic mini-dissertations under my supervision (for which I had to do a lot of proof-reading). I also have extensive experience with teaching and evaluating legal writing skills, since I have been involved in a writing skill course as consultant at the NWU. Feel free to contact me to obtain examples of my work and/or my CV. With regards to the given exercise: I take it that the following are all headlines. Accordingly, I did not use full stops at the end of sentences.

Dear Hiring Manager: It is with great enthusiasm that I submit my application as a proofreader for your business magazine. As a documentation and graphics professional, news writer and proofreader with over four years of experience, I know my diverse skills and qualifications will make me the best candidate for this bid. I can multitask and I'm keen to details – particularly when it comes to presentations, articles and newsletters. One of my recent projects involved finalizing a corporate internal newsletter and brochure: I proofed and edited the content provided by our Singaporean counterparts, proposed a new template that will be used in the new fiscal year, and generally made sure every line was letter-perfect, with the completed output still in line with the company’s branding standards. I believe in applying this same level of attention to detail to different levels of tasks – from simple proofreading of articles to even revamping a business paper design. Please find my revisions below. You can also check out my profile for my professional background. I appreciate your consideration and look forward to hearing from you. Singapore bond volume doubles to $31.5b in 2012. Singapore Permanent Residents slammed by stricter rules on subletting flats. Here's why "parental leave" is too complicated. Sales were only S$128m.
