About

Here's my story:

I’m an independent writing and research specialist. Based in Barcelona, I help researchers in the US and Spain get their results published in English. Many of my authors have Catalan or Spanish as their first language. Susan Frekko, Ph.D.

I hold a Ph.D. in linguistic anthropology from the University of Michigan. I have published my own research in top academic journals since 2009. I use this first-hand experience to help other researchers place their work in international publications. Susan Frekko, Ph.D.

Before moving to Barcelona in 2013, I taught anthropology in the U.S. at the undergraduate and graduate levels for 13 years. In addition to one-on-one consultation via skype or in person, I also offer courses and seminars on academic writing in English.Susan Frekko, Ph.D.
