Six years ago, Cairo Corrections founder, Chris Thomas, moved from the UK to Egypt to begin the next chapter in his life. Since then, after trying to find suitable employment in his field of logistics and operations management, Chris decided it was time to turn his other passion, the English language and its correct usage, to good use, and so, Cairo Corrections was born. “For a long time, as I walk around this wonderful city, I can’t help but notice all the grammatical and spelling errors of shop signs, monument plaques, restaurants, etc.”, said Chris. “So, as a qualified teacher of English, I decided to have a little career change”. He went on to say that, in his belief, errors reflect poorly on the businesses that make them. “If you’re trying to appeal to an international clientele, you have to get it right. People will automatically be suspicious if there are errors in manuals, press releases, brochures. etc.”.

 

With that thought, he landed a job as the chief copy editor for one of Cairo’s biggest online lifestyle and entertainment magazines. This gave him the idea to expand his horizons and offer the benefit of his knowledge to the broader Cairo community. “I’ll be doing all of the work myself to begin with”, he says, “but when the workload dictates, I have a network of similarly qualified people at my disposal to help with the extra work. All qualified teachers, all English native speakers, and all thoroughly vetted by me ”.

With a range of options to suit whatever your editorial needs, Chris is extremely confident that Cairo Corrections will be able to help raise your business to a new level of professionalism and be viewed in a better light by the global community.
