Meet Tania

I have spent my entire career working with language. I started editing professionally in 2010, and I have been freelance since 2012. When I'm not editing, I write textbooks for English language learners, particularly in the field of English for Academic Purposes (EAP). I also have over 25 years' experience teaching and designing curricula for EAP programs at colleges and universities.

​

I am a dual citizen of the UK and Canada. I grew up in England, and I now live in Canada with my husband and two grown-up children, both university students.
