Colleague has asked me to proofread 30 pages of his PhD. Need the money - happy to do it - but no clear idea what to charge. I'm not a professional proofreading or editor but I do look at students' academic work for a living.
Per 1, 000 words? I'd rather than than charge per hour. I can work quite slowly (and carefully!) so I don't think an hourly charge would be fair on him - or me.
I'd be grateful for any suggestions.
