Why do we proofread?
Before submitting or printing an academic research paper, essay, email, memo, or any other written document, it is very important to carefully proofread it. Proofreading of written material is the final step that must be taken before a document can be considered complete. Proofreading helps us to check that we have included everything we wanted to say in any piece of writing. It gives us a chance to review our work and add in anything we may have missed out. It helps us iron out any little, unnecessary errors we may have made. Proofreading shows that we take pride in our work and that it is the best one can make it. It can help in gaining extra marks in exams and could even make the difference between an entire grade.
If we want our readers to be able to focus on the content of our writing, not the mistakes and errors that we have been overlooked and remain in our writing. When our written work is perfect, it shows others that we pay attention to detail and care about the things that we produce. This gives our writing added strength and authority.
Proofreaders generally have one main objective: to ensure that a written document is absolutely perfect in terms of grammar and vocabulary.
Content is important. But like it or not, the way a paper looks affects the way others judge it. When we’ve worked hard to develop and present our ideas, we don’t want careless errors distracting our reader from what we have to say. It’s worth paying attention to the details that help us to make a good impression. Therefore, we proofread essays, CVs, cover letters, emails, blogs, and tweets.
A lot of people underestimate the importance of proofreading and simply decide to skip it, usually due to deadline constraints. What people don’t realize is that a thorough proofread can be the difference between an outstanding essay and a mediocre essay. Alternatively, if we are writing for publication or business purposes, submitting a document that hasn’t been proofread can damage our reputation, as it will almost certainly contain errors.
