Why are we better than any other student proofreading service?
Well, the majority of proofreading services out there provide subject-specific editors. Usually, they are experts in their subject and not necessarily experts in English language usage. Our editors have spent their entire careers working with English language development, as English tutors at university and native editors. They are very experienced at it, highly educated in it and trained to understand English at a linguistic level.
What's included in our student proofreading service
The standard service makes sure that your work is free of misplaced words, spelling errors, syntax errors and grammar errors.
The editing option allows your editor to offer suggestions to reword awkward or overly complex sentences. It also empowers your editor to spot inconsistencies in your writing style or the format of your document (you're welcome to provide any style guidelines for your institution).
