Manuscript Editing for Tizard Learning Disability Review Journal Articles
The Tizard Learning Disability Review is an international, multidisciplinary journal aimed at improving the lives of people with intellectual (learning) disabilities. It promotes evidence-informed, person-centred, and neurodiversity-affirming approaches. Emerald publishes it.
A Student Section publishes 2,000- to 3,000-word articles from work completed within the past year. These include small-scale research projects, systematic literature reviews, case studies, and policy analyses, and a supervisor may co-author. Student authors contact the Student Section editor early and include a brief summary of the course. Emerald's general guidelines call for a structured abstract of up to 250 words, keywords included, with up to six keywords. Those guidelines set double-anonymous review by at least two independent referees. Off the Grid Editing applies the journal's instructions when you send them, including its reference style. Submissions go through ScholarOne.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for the Tizard Learning Disability Review
We offer three levels of manuscript editing depending on what your manuscript needs. Each is described below so you can choose the service that fits where your draft is right now.
Grammar and usage, awkward phrasing, repetition, and passive voice corrected, then clarity, concision, sentence structure, transitions, and tone, with your style manual applied throughout and a final proofread. For authors whose argument and structure are settled.
Clarity, emphasis, and paragraph structure: topic sentences, transitions, and sentences reordered within a paragraph, with every fact and claim kept as you wrote it. Includes copy editing and a final proofread.
Spelling, punctuation, typos, capitalization, grammar, and usage corrected with minimal wording changes, for manuscripts that have been edited and need a last check before submission to Tizard Learning Disability Review.
Emerald's author guidelines cover abstracts, keywords, and review. If you have reviewer comments from an earlier submission, send them with your manuscript and we will address each one. If you have questions about which service is right for your manuscript, contact us directly. We respond to every inquiry the same day during business hours.
Our journal article and essay editing page explains how we edit disability research, and academic proofreading is the final pass. If English is your second language, see English language editing for researchers. We also prepare articles for the Journal of Social Care and Psychosocial Intervention.
