Proofreading
Proofreading is the final, careful check before your document is submitted or shared. It focuses on correcting errors in grammar, spelling, punctuation and typography, so that small mistakes do not distract readers from your work.
What proofreading can include
The exact scope is agreed with you before work begins, based on your document and what matters most to you.
- Correcting spelling, grammar and punctuation
- Fixing typographical errors, such as repeated or missing words
- Checking consistency of spelling conventions, capitalization and hyphenation
- Flagging sentences that are unclear, for you to decide how to resolve
Editing that respects academic integrity
We work on the text you have written. We do not write assessed work on your behalf, and we never alter your data, findings or conclusions.
If your institution or publisher has rules about editing support, please check them before you get in touch, and we will work within them. We cannot promise grades, acceptance or publication; those decisions rest with your institution or publisher.
