A lot of people don’t necessarily understand how many services a language company like Monterey Language Services provides. Aside from interpretation, business translation, personal translation, and localization services, we also may be able to help out when it comes to your academic needs.`

We offer a whole branch of services which we call Academic Services. This usually encompasses grammar checking, editing, formatting and translation services for journal and conference articles, doctoral and master’s theses, and research papers and proposals. The convenience of the internet means you don’t know who may be looking to use the research from your thesis; or what languages they may speak!

One of the most popular portions of our academic services is formatting. A lot of people such as the person mentioned in this excerpt from one of our colleagues may have a hard time adapting to new paper formats. However, Monterey Language Services is here to help! They state:

“When I found out that Monterey Language Services offers Academic Services, I immediately thought of a friend of mine. She recently transferred to a new business school that insists on APA formatting for everything, even forum posts. A former History student, she had always used Chicago Style citation. Her first class was a Psychology class. Oh my, did she struggle! Her writing style and content were consistently A-B quality, but the stringent new citation format was very difficult to master. Unfortunately, her professor was a stickler for detail. Consequently, her worthwhile papers were severely graded down. She never earned above a C in that class. All of this could have been avoided if she had known about Monterey Language Services. She assures me that if she encounters another such professor; she will hire them right away. She insists that she will contract Monterey Language Services for her thesis formatting.”
