Editing & Proofreading
Editing
Editing is the process of improving the overall quality of writing to make an essay the best it can possibly be, by enhancing flow, readability and structure and making sure the meaning and ideas are conveyed properly for the audience.
It also involves looking more closely at the content itself, using specialist knowledge of the subject to clarify the text.
Proofreading
After the text has been edited, it’s time for proofreading to take center stage.
Proofreading is the process of reviewing the draft to identify errors in spelling, punctuation and grammar, inconsistent terminology and formatting and referencing issues.
It is a task that requires specialized knowledge and experience and a nuanced understanding of the language.
