Are you someone who, despite having an adequate understanding of the English language, has a hard time writing a blog or newsletter and instead, gets caught with silly spelling mistakes or flubs? Or maybe you aspire to become a professional proofreader but don’t know how to start or where to start from? Either way, this Proofreading Techniques course is what you need. By enrolling in this course, you will learn how to find out and identify typos, grammatical errors and contextual inconsistencies from a text which distracts the readers away from the main message of the written material. You will also learn how to produce a complete error-free text that communicates directly to the hearts of the ones who read. The instructor, Marcia Yudkin, is a well established marketing coach who has worked with and guided many writers and business owners for decades. She also has had her own work proofread by professionals working in top American book publishers and magazines. Moreover, she previously had experience working as a freelance editor and advisor for a small press for quite a few years. This Proofreading Techniques course contains three comprehensive tests: one in the beginning that will help you to identify the weaknesses that you have regarding proofreading and two more in the end that will give you the chance to apply the new skills and knowledge that you would've learned in this course and see how well they work. This sought-after video course will enrich you with valuable resources and information in a short time by being practical and on point. Proofread your work if you want to be taken seriously.
