Experience

My day is flexible and I work mainly from home. Most of my day is taken up with various editing jobs, making art or working on my online art platform. I teach an art class from my home once a week - during lockdown this continued via Zoom. I also work informally as a mentor for mid-career artists. I have a gorgeous elderly labrador who I walk daily!

Education
1999 - 2003
MA (Fine Arts) - University of Stellenbosch

For this particular qualification, I made a body of artwork that was exhibited at one of the University's galleries, and wrote a 120 page thesis.

    I have over 12 years of experience in editing academic papers in the arts and social sciences. Good writing is my passion. I can help a student understand what is needed of them, how to plan the written answer, and then offer suggestions for improvement. I also assist in guiding the student's research and show them how to focus on the topic at hand. I prefer to monitor the students while they write so that they themselves become skilled in responding to questions, that is, they become independent of external help. I have a Masters' degree in Fine Arts, and lectured for 5 years at the Visual Arts Department at UNISA. See my website writing page: https://www.mandyconidaris.com/e-services-writing-editing
