Why is proofreading important?

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank you very much for your help and your work. It was amazing."

E. Del F, October 2010

Regardless of how well you write, many people think that proofreading is unimportant. It is as well to bear in mind that many people have not been taught to spell, and do not know the rudiments of grammar. Meaning may be lost entirely if one’s work is not correctly edited and proofread. Proofreading and editing are the essentials that will set written and online material apart from all the rest.

Proofreading is important to avoid embarrassing mistakes such as:

CorrectionsSome of our clients are international students who have trouble understanding English grammar and spelling and this leads to mistakes in their work. At Apollo Communication we have considerable experience in proofreading and editing material of this nature. We are well aware that the most effective way to assist international students is to provide appropriate proofreading and editing services.

A thesis or essay that is ready for submission should not be full of grammatical and spelling errors. It is important, however, to ensure that the material, be it an essay or dissertation, meets the required instructions. For instance, candidates or students may know what they want to say, but cannot comply with the required instructions. It is here that careful editing and proofreading can meet these needs.

When writing an essay or dissertation it is not sufficient to give a list of facts; these should be presented in an interesting format. An introduction must grab the reader. A conclusion must not merely be a conclusion; it must give the reader a reminder, a take‑away that will leave them thinking of the work. 

"I have checked these chapters you have sent back to me. I must say your work was absolutely exceptional as always. You are a star. Thank you very much indeed. I will definitely use your service in the future."

It is wrong to think that words will be correct when a spell‑checker is used. English has many words, such as ‘their, there’; ‘were, we’re’; ‘quite, quiet’, and many others that can confuse the writer. Proofreaders find these offending words and correct them.

Finally, a document with the appropriate layout will be clear and easy to follow. Layout encompasses page numbers, headings, spacing, indents, quotations, typefaces and references.

Proofreading and editing tips

The importance of accuracy

In business, it is essential that contracts, reports and financial documents are properly worded and that financial information is accurate. Documents that have been carefully proofread will not contain conflicting and embarrassing errors, such as 'increments will be made at 2-yearly intervals', instead of 'increments will be made at 1-yearly intervals.' Brochures, job resumes and dissertations should be checked for inaccuracies and inappropriate expressions before they are submitted to potential clients, employers, organizations and universities.

"Thank you and I really appreciate your hard work (especially) on my essays. Thank you very much for your great work."
