Chatiana tells us that, “When I proofread, I reread my paper about three or four times just to make sure there are no misspelled words, no incorrect sentences, no comma splices, no imprecise language—and to make sure my details are accurate.” Like all the students in this video, she understands that proofreading is not about fixing the content of the paper. Instead, it is about finding small, potentially distracting errors and making sure that your finished work is as polished and clear as possible for your audience.
