English Proofreading

This service is for people who have written their text in English and would like the following:

  • grammatical errors and spelling mistakes checked
  • the style and sentence structure improved
  • natural English expressions added
  • a professional image

Whether you are writing for business or personal reasons, we can ensure that your English text is accurate and well-written.

You may be a non-native English speaker who needs support with your correspondence or a native English speaker who lacks confidence in writing - it doesn't matter.

What does, is that you are sending out a clear and concise document which in turn guarantees that your message is understood. Above all, you will be giving a good impression of yourself.

How does it work?

There are two separate tasks involved:

  • Correction. The text is checked for spelling mistakes, grammatical errors (eg: past, present and future tenses), incorrect punctuation and inappropriate words or phrases
  • Improvement. The flow and style of the text are improved and natural English expressions are added. The tone is modified so that it is appropriate for your reader.

The result is a 100% professional document.

Upgrading

Upgrading goes a step further than proofreading.  It uses the skills of a copywriter to create an effective piece of copy.  Copy is anything written that intends to sell, persuade or inform.  A brochure, a website, a newsletter or an advertisement are some examples of copy. Well-written copy grabs the attention of the reader, persuades him to read on and awakens his intetest in the product or service. 

Upgrading improves the flow and pace of copy, uses powerful or persuasive language, and turns dull writing into lively and energetic writing.






Which documents can be corrected and improved?

All types of documents and correspondence can be dealt with:

  • Business letters
  • Reports
  • Newsletters
  • Advertisements
  • Menus
  • Press releases
  • Presentations
  • Web pages
  • Theses

The list is endless...


How do you use this service?

It's easy to use this service. First, go to the Contact Page and submit a proof reading request.

Once we have received this, we will send you a very simple form to complete. This will enable us to produce the best possible text for you. The form will ask you:


  • The aim of your communication (to make a recommendation, give information, make a request, etc)

Complete the form and return it to us with your document(s) attached. You can do this either by e-mail or by post.

We will then:
