General Writing and Grammar Help/Expert Profile
Expertise
I can answer questions involving grammar and editing and also formatting. I can help others with ideas for writing and am experienced in proofreading and checking content. My main strength would be checking over rough drafts and helping develop them into final drafts. I also work at 2 local newspapers as a reporter where English and writing skills are required.
Experience in the area
I have completed several years of English in high school and have attained top marks in every class. I have completed two units, both Composition I and Composition II, which are major stepping stones in our 4 year high school English program. I often aid in peer revision for several other students within our district as well. I also work at 2 local newspapers as a reporter where English and writing skills are required.
Organizations
I belong to several organizations inside and outside of school. Some of them are FCCLA (Future Community & Career Leaders of America), SADD (Students Against Destructive Decisions), and Project Gutenberg's Distributed Proofreaders (PGDP).
