A little bit about myself and Refreshing Copy
Hello, I’m Derek Philip-Xu and I’m passionate about education. From being an English language teacher to publishing educational materials (both print and digital), I have taught a wide variety of students and written and developed teaching materials for them as well. And now I'm taking all the knowledge and experience I've gained over the past 20 years and putting it into my business, Refreshing Copy.
What does Refreshing Copy do?
At Refreshing Copy, I provide authoring, e-learning, editorial and copywriting consultancy to clients in education (although I write content for clients in other sectors as well).
Refreshing Copy specialises in two main areas:
My career has gone from Chartered Surveying to English language teaching to educational publishing, and has taken me to many interesting parts of the world: Japan, Spain and China.
For over ten years now, I've been involved in educational publishing, commissioning and developing print and digital titles for international markets.
Refreshing Copy takes advantage of those ten years of print and digital publishing experience, ultimately enabling me to help you get better results from your written content.
