Learn to edit and revise work is as demanding as learning to be good writer, ask an editor of any publication in digital form or print. We often start by reviewing our own work. I would argue it is best to start by editing the work of others. When we reread our own work, we hear what we intended to write, not what is actually written on the page. Peer editing is a great way to promote this task in your classroom. When begin editing work you will learn better uses of grammar and mechanics. We encourage you to start by reading your work out loud. This will help you easily pinpoint errors and mistakes. These worksheets will help you kick off your proofreading career in a positive manner.

How to Proofread?
Proofreading means to read a piece of content to detect for general writing errors, grammatical mistakes, and spelling errors so that you can make sure that the final piece of writing is accurate and correct in all aspects. Proofreading is the last step of the writing process and must be completed carefully. Professional writers proofread their document so that their final document is well written, precise, and easy to read. Students do know how to write an assignment and other literary work but do not know how to proofread it. Proofreading is not an easy process but with a little bit of practice, it becomes easier. Given below are some tips that help one a lot to proofread the document efficiently and easily:
Reading Carefully
Careful reading is a key tool for proofreading. Read every word carefully to make sure that your work is free of errors. Look for spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, and punctuation mistakes.
Look for One Problem at One Time
If you are a beginner in proofreading, then proofread for one type of problem at one time. For example, in the first sitting, look for spelling mistakes only and in second sitting, look for grammatical errors. This technique will help to stay focused while proofreading your document.
Use Computer Software
With the advancement of technology, many different forms of proofreading software is available. When you are done proofreading manually, it might be a good idea to use software to double check. I find that most people get in the habit of going over the errors detected by the software and then manually editing it. I find the reverse to be much more rewarding. Use a spelling checker and other grammatical software to make your final piece of writing accurate in all aspects. The best known software at this time is called Grammarly and they have a pretty extensive free app.
Ask Someone to Proofread
Ask an honest friend to reread the content for you. Ask for the pattern that is confusing him or her, spelling mistakes that you may have ignored, and other errors. Ask for his or her advice regarding how can you further improve your document and try to consider his advice.
