$30-250 USD

Paid on delivery
I am looking for someone with a literary ear, who also has a strong sense of the flow of speech-writing to help edit and give feedback on the text of speech I will be delivering in a few short weeks at an important event. The audience is general. I am looking for constructive criticism and editing suggestions. Hopefully I can find someone who can work on this project immediately since I must begin memorizing my text soon.

Some details would help. For example, how long is the speech? What's the general topic? That sort of thing. Note that while I'm a good writer and have a very good ear for wording and flow, I've never worked on a speech before.

Hello! I am a native English speaker with a Master's degree in English literature. I have experience teaching at the university level, as well as 6 years of experience writing and (orally) presenting complicated information effectively for general and professional audiences alike, I would be thrilled to help you revise your speech. If you award me this project, I will proofread your speech and provide some editing suggestions in comment bubbles in MS word. Grammatical revisions will be noted using the track changes function so that you will be able to accept or reject them at your own discretion. I would be able to do this by the end of the weekend. Moreover, if you have the time for it, I would like to either hear a recording of your voice or speak to you over Skype before I get to work, so that I can adjust my suggestions to your own accent and cadence. As I do not yet know how long this speech is meant to be, nor its contents, I cannot offer more than a speculative quote right now, but I am interested in hearing more. I look forward to hearing from you, and I hope to work with you soon :)

As an English teacher and editor, I'm highly interested in avoiding language mistakes. More important than ensuring that everything is 'right,' however, is the actual effectiveness of your speech. I have experience in public speaking - church and school - and my linguistic and literary background can benefit your speech. I hope it goes well!

I'm very familiar with speech-writing techniques such as "the rule of three", identification, momentum etc. Let's see what we can come up with together.

Hello, I am a teacher to English grammar and Aristotelian rhetoric. In fact, just Monday I taught a lesson to the second canon of rhetoric, "dispositio," which refers to the arrangement, or the most effective ordering of your points as to be maximally persuasive. I'm also preparing a lesson on the third canon, "elocutio"or style. I will be able to analyze your speech in these ways, and give you feedback concerning the overall direction and end of your words. I can also smooth out your phrasings, correct grammar, and suggest tropes or figures of speech you might pepper into your speech for greater effect. I hope we will be able to work together. Best to you, lauradeesage
