Proofreading, editing and assignment writing since 2010
It is 11pm, the portal closes on Friday, and you have read your own work so many times that the mistakes have gone invisible. You think, "The content is done. I just need someone to catch what I can't see." One wrong citation or a stray "their" can still cost marks.
A human proofreader corrects grammar, British spelling, referencing and formatting line by line, with every correction in tracked changes. If the draft needs more, an expert can edit it, fix it against the rubric or finish the missing sections.
How finished is it
Most drafts that reach us here are finished and need every slip caught before the deadline. If yours needs more than a proofread, the other four routes are below.
Grammar, punctuation, British spelling, referencing and template formatting corrected line by line, in tracked changes.
If the problem is structure, argument or a missed criterion, a proofread won't touch it. An expert rates each criterion and rewrites the weak sections.
The conclusion or a whole section is still missing. An expert completes it in your argument and voice, then proofreads the whole piece.
No draft, or one that answers the wrong question. A subject writer produces the full assignment to your brief and referencing style.
A live session on your own writing for students who want to stop losing marks to the same grammar and referencing slips.
Late-stage worries
A finished draft and a tired reader is the usual story here. These are the lines that arrive with the files.
After the fifth read your brain fills in what you meant. A fresh reader sees what's actually there.
Citation generators and copied entries drift apart over weeks. We set every entry to one style.
Tense, articles and plurals are the most common slips. We correct them without changing your meaning.
Margins, headings, captions and page numbers set exactly as your school asks.
Referencing errors are easy marks to lose and easy to fix before the deadline.
Long documents build up small inconsistencies across chapters. We check them as one piece.
Before you send it
Five tricks proofreaders use. Try them tonight; what they don't catch, send to us.
Switch the font, or print it. A different look stops your brain from reading what it expects.
Missing words and run-on sentences show up when you have to say them.
Use Find for its/it's, their/there, affect/effect and any error your lecturer marked last time.
Tick each in-text citation against the reference list. Names, years and spellings should match exactly.
Font, spacing, margins, headings, captions and page numbers, against your school's template.
Before and after
The same sentence before and after a proofread. The claim is unchanged; grammar, punctuation and citation format are corrected.
Before: errors throughout
After: corrected
Illustrative example. Your proofread works on your own text, with every correction in tracked changes.
Referencing styles
Each referencing style fails in its own places. Here is what gets checked, the slip we see most and how fiddly it is to correct.
APA 7
Harvard
OSCOLA
MLA 9
Last-minute list
Tick what matches. The proofreader then knows what to look at first.
One mixed reference list
How two mixed referencing styles became one clean Harvard list by midday.
A finished report, a Thursday 5pm deadline and no energy left to check the referencing.
The argument was done and she was confident in it, but citations had been copied from different databases over several weeks, leaving a mix of Harvard and APA across sections.
A proofreader set every citation and reference entry to Harvard, flagged two sources missing from the list, and corrected the punctuation slips along the way, without changing a sentence of content.
“I just needed someone to catch what I was too tired to see.”
The corrected file came back by midday, ahead of her deadline, with every change in tracked changes and a note on the two missing sources. The mark stayed hers to earn.
Illustrative example based on common student situations, not a specific individual.
By study level
Referencing conventions and common slips change by level and faculty. Here is what usually needs checking at each stage.
Diploma referencing is usually simpler but formatting against a strict template is checked closely.
Harvard basics · template margins and headings
Typical papers
business report
Template formatting is checked more strictly than citation style itself.
consistent fonts and bullets · slide citations · typo sweep
Typical papers
presentation slides
Slides carry quotes and figures with no source shown anywhere.
grammar and tense · table and figure labels · appendix order
Typical papers
group project report
Group sections written by different members read in clashing styles.

“I needed urgent proofreading help for my final year project report. The expert not only corrected the grammar but also made my technical explanations clearer. They even followed NTU’s formatting guide properly. Impressed with the quick turnaround!”
“Honestly, I didn’t expect such detailed editing. They caught so many small errors I didn’t even notice. Plus, they helped me rephrase awkward sentences without changing my original meaning. My paper finally looked and sounded academic!”
“I’ve used their proofreading service twice now – once for a research proposal and once for a group project. Both times, the edits were top-notch, and the service was super friendly. It’s like having a personal English coach. Highly recommended!”
“I was struggling to make my assignment sound more professional. The proofreading service fixed all my grammar issues and improved the flow of my writing. My lecturer even commented that the language was ‘much more polished’ this time. Got an A for the module – super thankful!”

Why a person checks it
Software catches some slips and adds others. These are the reasons students give for sending the final check to a person.
A human proofreader reads every line. No grammar-checker autopilot.
Every entry set to your required style, and any source we can't trace is flagged.
See our reference verification serviceTracked changes you can accept or reject one by one.
Message your proofreader on WhatsApp with questions.
Your file is used only for your order. We never contact your school.
Final checks for Singapore students since 2010.
Any campus, online
Files arrive by upload or WhatsApp, so a Kaplan report and an NTU thesis chapter go through the same proofreaders and the same reply time.

Proofreading FAQs
Answers on turnaround, referencing, privacy and price.
Grammar, punctuation, British spelling, word-level clarity, referencing format and template formatting. Content, argument and structure are left as you wrote them.
Proofreading corrects surface errors: grammar, spelling, references and layout. Editing goes further into structure, argument and flow. If you're not sure which you need, send the draft and we'll recommend one before quoting.
Often it is, if the structure works and the errors are mostly grammar and word choice. If the meaning gets lost in places, a light edit is better, and we'll tell you before you pay.
Your draft, the referencing style, your school's formatting template or instructions, the word count and the deadline.
Often, yes. Proofreading is our quickest service. Send the file with your deadline and we confirm the return time in writing before you pay.
Yes. Long documents can be proofread in stages as chapters are finished, with the same proofreader throughout so terms and formatting stay consistent.
APA 7, Harvard, MLA and OSCOLA, plus IEEE and others on request. In-text citations are matched to the reference list entry by entry.
Partly. A proofread sets every reference in your required style and flags any entry we cannot trace, but it does not confirm that each source exists and says what your text claims. For that, our separate citation and reference verification service checks every entry one by one and replaces invented ones with real, checkable sources.
By a person. Grammar software misses context and introduces errors of its own, especially in referencing.
Yes. Message your proofreader on WhatsApp about any correction. You can accept or reject every tracked change.
Yes. Your file and details are handled under Singapore's PDPA and used only for your order. We never contact your school or lecturer.
Proofreading, like academic writing, editing and tutoring, isn't the subject of any specific Singapore law. Each university, polytechnic and PEI sets its own rules on proofreading, outside help and AI use, and you are responsible for following them. We are independent and not affiliated with any institution. If you're unsure, ask us first.
Proofreading is priced per 1,000 words, depending on length and return time. You get a written SGD quote before you pay.
Tell us where and it is corrected free. Revisions against your original request cost nothing extra.
No legitimate service can guarantee a grade. Proofreading removes avoidable errors in language, referencing and format, which are marks no one wants to lose.
