Academic Proofreading

Service Agreement

By submitting payment, you acknowledge and accept the following service provisions.

Scope of Proofreading

The proofreader will correct and ensure consistency in spelling (British or American English as specified in the Format section), grammar, and punctuation throughout the document. In addition, the proofreader will review the formatting and consistency of sub-headings, bibliographic references, tables, figures, and other structural elements included in your work.

Style and Formatting

If you do not provide a specific style guide, references will be corrected according to the style most consistently used in your document, to maintain coherence. Please note that we do not reduce documents to meet word limits, and we do not convert referencing systems (for example, changing in-text citations to footnotes or numbered references).

Proofreading Method

Your document will be proofread using the Microsoft Word “Track Changes” feature. This ensures full transparency and allows you to:

• review each modification with ease,

• accept or reject individual edits, and

• view comments, suggestions, and corrections clearly displayed in the margin.

Files Returned to You

Upon completion, you will receive two versions of your document:

Tracked version: a file containing all edits, comments, and suggested changes (e.g., yourfilename_tracked_version.docx).

Clean version: a fully proofread file with all changes accepted (e.g., yourfilename_clean_version.docx).

Example File Names

Certificate

Official Proofreading Certificate

Upon request, we can provide an official certificate confirming that your document has been professionally proofread by a qualified member of our team at Proof-Reading-Service.com.

This certificate acts as formal verification for publishers, journals, and academic institutions that the language, grammar, and overall readability of your text have been thoroughly reviewed and corrected by a professional proofreader.

Proof-Reading-Service.com exclusively offers academic proofreading services for senior academics, including professors, postdoctoral researchers and research students. We cover all academic materials from PhD theses, dissertations, conference papers and journal articles to scientific documents, books and research proposals. We will proofread your academic and scientific materials to a high standard using the experience and skills of our professional academic proofreaders.

PRS ensures that your work is free of grammatical errors and spelling mistakes and that it puts your ideas across effectively and clearly in perfect English. For submission details for our academic proofreading services, please refer to the ‘How it works’ section of our website.

We will also check that your tables and footnotes are correct and your bibliography is consistent and correctly set out, to make sure that you submit a professional-looking academic or scientific paper. Many of our customers are non-native English speakers who are senior academics including professors who wish to publish their research in English, or graduate students writing up their dissertations. We specialise in helping these customers by correcting and ensuring the consistency of their spelling, grammar and punctuation and the format of subheadings, bibliographical references, tables, figures etc.

In some cases, our proofreaders will also offer advice on ways to improve your writing style in situations in which it is not strictly incorrect, but perhaps a little awkward or unclear. At all times, our goal is to help you report your research and communicate your ideas clearly and effectively in perfect English so that your written work faithfully and accurately reflects the high quality of its content and the research behind it.

Sharing your writing with colleagues and mentors before you submit it for publication or grading can be extremely helpful, particularly if their specialities overlap your own, but the services of a professional academic proofreader are well worth their price. The academic proofreaders at Proof-Reading-Service.com, for instance, are highly educated native speakers of English. They hold postgraduate degrees, many of them doctorates, in a wide range of academic subjects, and all of them are experts in proofreading English text. They can check and correct your grammar, punctuation and spelling, as well as the formatting and the editorial style of references, abbreviations and other elements of your writing. Since our proofreaders are academics and careful critical readers, they can watch for errors in data and suggest where descriptions of methods and results are not as clear and precise as they might be. They are also adept at assessing the effectiveness of the tables and figures that often play such an important role in communicating the details of academic research.

Your professional image can be spoilt by small grammatical mistakes and careless spelling. Let us ensure that your written work faithfully and accurately reflects the quality of the content of your essay, dissertation, PhD thesis, journal paper or book.

Our academic proofreading of your work will give you more confidence in the work you submit or publish. We can help you put your ideas across clearly and effectively in perfect English by removing errors of grammar and spelling before you submit your essay, dissertation or thesis for examination, or your book or paper for publication.

We have helped many senior academics including professors and researchers by proofreading their written work before it was accepted for publication. Without academic proofreading, the work would not have been accepted. In many cases, customers have contacted us to proofread their work because it was rejected on the first submission due to too many errors of English spelling and grammar. In most of these cases, the document was accepted for publication after our academic proofreading services was used.
