First, you need skills. I'm amazed that you are a writer and editor, yet you are not native or bilingual in any language. How do you write and edit in English, when you do not demonstrate that ability?

This is not the profile of a writer and editor. Also, you can't link on your profile.
 
I'm shocked you have had any jobs. Please enlighten me as to how you manage to write and edit? I would love to know.
 
The best practice is to have real skills and not use programs.

Dear Jeanne Madam,  

Thanks for your guidance. I am a quick learner, and I believe in honesty & hard work. I am responsive and respond within 10-20 minutes. I am dynamic/flexible, Creative, & deliver on time; I usually share a sample work 1st before taking any order; after their satisfaction, I offer my services. Client satisfaction is my 1st priority.

I also prefer manual work. It's time-consuming but more reliable.
