What is proofreading? Proofreading is the process of which a writer review his writing to make it better by correcting errors or adding more details. It is important to proofread your writing because it gives you feedback on what you should do to improve it. It can help you see the errors you didn't see while you was writing. For example,Bob finishes his paper ,then submitted it in for grading without proofreading it. The teacher gave Bob a low passing grade due to multiple errors throughout his paper. Bob could of avoided this if he proofread his paper and made the revisions. Proofreading your writing could bring you one step closer to having a great paper.
