Testimonials

Amber, UK

I visited the Tesoro Escondido Conservation Reserve in August 2023 where I met Kirstynn who was assisting the reserve as a translator for the foreign volunteers. I arrived with very basic Spanish and Kirstynn was so helpful in helping me to communicate with the reserve staff while I was volunteering! She was also incredibly encouraging when it came to me trying to communicate with the staff myself using my basic vocabulary and she gave me great confidence and help when I needed it! 

Verónica Crespo-Pérez, Ecuador

I highly recommend Kristynn's English editing services. She helped us with two manuscripts and her edits greatly improved the quality of our papers.

Her work was very good ,with great responsibility and commitment! Thank you very much Kirstynn, your support was key in the development of our website!!

Roberto Fabara, Ecuador

Kirstynn has edited multiple research papers for me on social development studies. She has great attention to detail and really helped me to better the English in my papers, in terms of spelling and grammar and overall flow/readability. She was great to work with and delivered quality work in good time. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again or to recommend her work.

Rodrigo Espinosa, Ecuador

Kirstynn helped me a lot by editing the English in a scientific paper before publishing, I would highly recommend her work!!!
