Liz DAVIDSON
About me
I am a native English speaker with a degree in English & European literature from Warwick, a top English university, as well as a post-graduate certificate in teaching English and English as a foreign language.
I have practised in the UK, China, Hong Kong and most recently in a French engineering school.
At Warwick, I took a course in translation to learn how to write English text which accurately reflects its source material.
I have extensive experience in providing conversation classes targetted to individual needs as well as preparing speakers to deliver presentations in English.
I have also had good results in helping candidates prepare for TOEIC and TOEFL exams.
In France, I have worked with colleagues, students, friends and others to edit documents that are written in English in many areas including:
#PhD Theses
#Publications
#CVs
#Application Letters
#Reports
#Essays
#Emails
#Presentations Slides
#Articles
#Documents
#Posters
#Signs
#Invitations

Elizabeth did an excellent job of correcting the English of my scientific article. Her mastery of the French language and her understanding of the nuances meant that my English translation was accurate and clear. Furthermore, she did it in a timely manner. Thanks to her professionalism, my article was published in a prestigious scientific journal. I highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking to have an English version of scientific work edited.
I have known Liz for 15 years now. She has reviewed for me countless professional documents, official letters, research articles, project reports, and even my presentation slides for conferences. She always finds the right words in our domain to showcase our work.
I first knew Liz Davidson when I was a Master’s student, then later, as a colleague. She is always happy and thrilled to help us correct any form of writing that we might have. From memos to PowerPoint presentations through technical documentation, she always takes the time to talk with us in order to fully understand the subject, so she can provide the best possible formulation/syntax. Liz Davidson is the first person I think of when it comes to correcting documents in English.
I worked with Liz for the 5 years of my engineering studies. During this time she helped enhance my English proficiency to a professional level, contributing to a 500 point increase in my TOEIC score, essential for validating my engineering diploma. Liz also helped me to draft research articles and with oral preparations for various international events, including reviewing my presentation slides. Additionally she provided support in improving my English writing as well as my oral interaction skills, leading me to pursue a PhD in a foreign country. I want to thank her again for all the help she gave me, which has had an important impact on my career.
Getting it right matters !
It is not always easy to write clearly and convey what you want to in a different language. Grammar errors can make your text difficult to understand and reduce your impact. Fundamental misunderstandings can occur with nuances in any language.
