Standard Proofreading
Starting at CA$0.021 per word

The Standard Proofreading Service is tailored for authors who do not speak English as their first language but are submitting their writing to an academic journal or institution with strict language requirements.

​

What’s included?

When you order the Standard Proofreading Service, your editor will fix all language-related issues in your document. In addition to fixing all technical issues like spelling and punctuation errors, your editor will rephrase grammatically acceptable sentences so that they will sound natural to an English-speaking audience.

​

Specific errors that your editor will check for include:

• Spelling mistakes

• Egregious grammatical errors (e.g., incorrect subject-verb agreement)

• Incorrect punctuation

• Vague, informal, and unnatural word choice

• Weak or missing transitional phrases

• Repetition, redundancies, and inconsistencies

• Illogical shifts in verb tense

• Sentences and paragraphs that are too long

• Plus much more

​

Your editor will also leave plenty of comments pointing out and explaining common errors so you can avoid them in the future and improve your writing skills.
