So hard to find good editors for English. Interviewed a candidate today who is working as an editor elsewhere. Studied 12 years in English-medium, CBSE, MSc, B.Ed. Her resume itself had errors in every line.
(And you want to convert 1.3 billion people to English-medium? 😏).

India's English obsession is creating linguistic cripples. I asked her if she could edit or write in Hindi, but she said her Hindi is worse.
Foisting an alien language has meant we are not good in any language. The natural ability of mother-tongue proficiency is destroyed.

Another candidate I interviewed, also from English-medium, spoke eloquently about this problem (I recorded her with permission to share).

Medium makes it much worse. A child learns language in a natural environment. When the school foists a different language, learning becomes very hard.

Apparently before the British came and colonized us and gave us the "gift" of English, people all over India were talking to each other in "Morse code." 😆

Remote work is ok. Looking for people in marketing and communication with good Hindi or English skills.
