Proof reading refers to checking your work for grammar, spelling and punctuation errors.It is an important step of your assignment writing process.
De Montfort University advises against the use of professional proof reading services, or proof reading by third parties (such as friends or relatives). This is because proof reading is an integral part of your writing process and you should take responsibility for it. For these reasons, DMU does not recommend or provide a proof reading service. However, students are permitted to seek assistance with proof reading, with the prior agreement of module tutor.
For more details, consult the library's proof reading guide.
CELL (Centre for English Language Learning) provides free English classes to all international students. Please make sure you contact CELL to sign up for your class.
