Proofreading
Not all English majors like to proofread and edit other people's work. This one does.
My name is Réven, and my history with the nitty-gritty of English and its rules goes back to elementary school. My mother and great-aunt taught English/Language Arts, and they would often critique my work for class until I finally wrote papers that neither one of them could mark up.
The true passion for proofreading and editing did not start until I went to college, where I majored in English and psychology. After taking a few English courses in my undergraduate freshman and sophomore years, I found that I was really into writing. However, I had a strong dislike for reviewing my own papers, but I absolutely loved reviewing others' papers -- for fun, of all things.
Eventually, I started proofreading and editing all kinds of work for high schoolers, coworkers, friends, family members, and even a few academic organizations. With all of my experiences, I knew it was time to make something bigger and brighter out of my skills.
Thus, proofRae'd was created.
