Lucy Cadney: Hi, my name's Lucy. I'm 32 and I'm from Derby in the UK. I'm a speech and drama teacher and I've worked freelance since I left university, which was about 10 years ago. I now run my own theater school as well as teaching, in schools, and I've just started proofreading.
What was your overall experience with our Becoming A Proofreader course? What did you like in particular?
Lucy Cadney: of knowledge. So I was really quite daunted before I started, and I remember thinking, you know, oh gosh, this is a huge career change. There's gonna be so much to learn. I don't know if I'm up to this. Yeah, I was really quite scared. But I did the trial, the sort of free trial, and instantly I was hooked. Everything was set out in such a clear and uncluttered way. And I'm a big visual person, so that was really, really good. The way I could see, right, here's what's gonna be in this module, here's what you're going to learn. Yeah, it was, it was really helpful in that respect. So, did the free trial and thought, yeah, this is great, I'm liking this. And so signed up for the main course. And yeah, it's, it was brilliant.
What was your experience with our guaranteed work offer with Proofed? How has the course helped you reach your goals?
So when I was searching for courses in proofreading, the guaranteed work offer with Proofed was certainly the thing that clinched, the deal for me with, with Knowadays.
What would you say to someone thinking about taking the course?
Lucy Cadney: To anyone thinking of enrolling in the course, I would say just go for it. I felt strangely empowered during the course. It was amazing doing something for me that felt really productive. I felt a great sense of achievement, especially after the final test, the final assessment.
