Pay it forward
As an Elite Wordapper, we expect you to contribute with your knowledge to the lower level freelancers. There are several ways to pay it forward:
1. Coaching
When new writers below level 9 are submitting tasks they are edited by coaches. While editing a task from a newcomer, you need to be even more friendly and understanding compared to regular editing. Optimally you will make the writer feel they can get help and ask you for information. No matter how bad the text is, it is important to remember that newcomers don’t know what is expected of them. So even though you know how “obvious” certain stuff is, they don’t.
Even though the job as a writer in Wordapp requires submitting perfect texts, this is not always the case with newcomers. When someone is completely new there are so many things to learn. The app is tricky to maneuver, Wordapp has language rules of their own, the projects have rules, and you as a coach know a lot about your native language. This is a lot for a newcomer to handle, and that’s why you are going to choose your battles and help them.
How to be a great coach:
- Show new writers how the app works, make them love it!
- Flag non-natives or people that simply can’t write (Wordapp is not a language school)
- Always give people a chance! Explain the language mistakes that they’ve made, explain that it is serious and what is expected of them. If they don’t improve then you can flag them.
- Use your own tone and what you find appropriate for the writer and the task when giving feedback
