Articles and assignments!

Postby greektutor » Fri Jun 05, 2009 4:44 pm

Hello, I would like to ask if any of you work for a newspaper or a magazine and if they need any people to write. I write very good English and Greek articles and I also make University assignments. I can also make translations Greek-English or the opposite.

“write up” or “create”

“I can also translate”

To be successful advertising your capabilities as a writer of articles in English requires that the advertisement is in good English!

Sorry but from your profile I noticed you claim to be a "Greek Teacher". I found it disturbing that a "teacher" could endorse such actions as producing assignments for use by others. Yourself on the other hand have taken it one step further by offering it as a service :shock: . What sort of "teacher" do you think you are?

Ignore these pseudo-literate layabouts who wouldn't do a day's work if you paid them! :roll:

As a linguist, you are probably aware of the prescriptive limits endorsed by the less fluent and articulate such that anything beyond the most common usage, propels them to unrefined pedantry.

Personally, I adore the elaborations in language whilst not forgetting it is just a tool to get the job done.

Now back to your request ... I seem to recall, there were a couple of adverts here for the sort of thing you are looking for. So, perhaps scroll through the Classifieds sections and, maybe also, start another thread in the Classifieds section yourself.

Anyway, if nothing else, I'm just bumping up your thread.

Good luck ... :D

Actually, what you were doing above was more like 'editing', rather than 'proofreading'.
