What My Clients Say

“I worked with Kudrat on two projects. We co-edited the book, The ACP Group and the EU Development Partnership: Beyond the North-South Debate, in 2017. Kudrat also copy-edited a Palgrave monograph which I co-authored in 2019. On both occasions, her work was of the highest quality. She is highly organised and has an eye for detail. Her command of English is impeccable and she is brilliantly precise and accurate, thorough and meticulous which resulted in flawless end products.”

— Dr Annita Montoute, Lecturer, Institute of International Relations, University of the West Indies, Trinidad and Tobago

“Kudrat edited my chapter ‘Women, Gender, and Peacebuilding’ in The Palgrave Handbook of Peacebuilding in Africa as well as an opinion piece I wrote for South Africa's national Mail & Guardian newspaper, among other work. All my experiences of Kudrat's editing work have been extremely positive. Her work manages to achieve an excellent balance between honouring the ideas of the author, while thoughtfully and precisely modifying the articulation of these ideas when necessary to provide consistently strong, clear, and accessible expression. Kudrat's work always evidences attention to detail, timeliness, and absolute accuracy.”

— Ms Antonia Porter, Interdisciplinary Practitioner and Consultant

“I hired Kudrat to edit the proceedings of the Second Indo-German Conference on Science for Sustainability. Kudrat was dedicated to her role and showed initiative. She demonstrated not only superb editing skills but also a quick grasp of the subject matter: she was able to absorb a lot of information well and was very quick to understand subtleties and nuances of complex issues. Importantly, she was able to work under pressure and meet tight deadlines while operating in a positive, constructive manner.”

— Ms Oksana Buranbaeva, Certified English-Russian Translator; and former Research Associate, United Nations University Vice-Rectorate in Europe, Bonn, Germany

“My final PhD thesis was edited by Kudrat. I have engaged various editorial services throughout my career and find Kudrat’s skill and work ethic noteworthy. She is meticulous, concise and chronological. Further, she asked meaningful questions and offered invaluable theoretical insights which ultimately contributed to a better conceptualised dissertation. Lastly, Kudrat worked 25-hour days as a means to enable me to meet my deadline.”

— Dr Nompilo Ndlovu, Department of Historical Studies, University of Cape Town, South Africa

“As a non-native English speaker, treating a subject which was peculiar to the French language and society, it was important for me to make sure that my undergraduate dissertation made sense to people who did not necessarily have an extensive understanding of those two elements. Kudrat managed to give meaning to my sometimes not-so-grammatically-correct sentences while keeping the essence of what was originally meant. She also made sure I was using the right referencing rules and punctuation, all of that in a very short amount of time. Moreover, I was truly impressed by Kudrat’s efficiency, attention to detail, professionalism, as well as her kind and comprehensive consideration for individual circumstances. I would recommend her editing services to anyone seeking impeccable and time-efficient work!”

— Ms Marie-Aminata Péron, School of Oriental and African Studies, London, England

“Kudrat is, undoubtedly, a scholar and practitioner par excellence. Having worked closely with her, I can unequivocally vouch that she is a well-rounded expert, gifted with both writing and editorial skills. True to her credentials as an Oxford graduate, her contributions are invariably thoroughly thought through and eloquently articulated.”

— Professor Dan Kuwali, University of Pretoria, South Africa, and University of Lilongwe, Malawi
