Proofreading

Proofreading is the final quality check before a document is published or submitted. It ensures your writing is polished, professional, and error-free.

What does a proofreader check?

As a CIEP-trained proofreader, I'll thoroughly check:

Grammar, spelling, and punctuation – Correcting typos, missing words, and inconsistencies.
Clarity and readability – Ensuring the text is easy to understand and free from ambiguity.
Tone and style – Making sure the writing is appropriate for its audience and purpose.
Document structure – Checking that content is complete, correctly ordered, and logically presented.
Consistency – Ensuring uniform spelling, capitalisation, and formatting throughout.
Numbering and references – Verifying that page numbers, footnotes, citations, and reference lists are correctly formatted and correspond to their in-text cues.
Visual elements – Ensuring tables, graphs, and images are correctly placed, labelled, and aligned.

Is proofreading the right option for you?

Proofreading is the last step before publishing, ensuring your work is error-free and professionally presented.

You need proofreading if:

Your text is already well-written and just needs a final check.
You want to catch typos, spelling errors, and grammatical mistakes.
You need to fix punctuation, formatting, and minor inconsistencies.
Your document is ready for publication or submission.
