  2. What Is Editing? Editing is a process which involves a proactive editor making changes/corrections and suggestions that will improve the overall quality of your thesis, particularly focuses on relation between language use and expression. After editing, you will observe changes such as if your document is sharp and consistent or not, and the overall readability of your writing needs enhancement or not.

  3. The following are some common questions that an editor will consider while editing your thesis: • Have correct words been chosen to express your ideas? An editor will pick up on it, if you used thesaurus throughout the document. • Have you used a passive voice? An active voice is not appropriate, but writing that is too passive does not make for compelling reading. • Is the tone appropriate for the audience? • Do you use too many words? Using unnecessary words is a common attribute in many writers, and editors hate it.

  4. What Is Proofreading? Proofreading performs a vital role. It is on the other hand has less ambition than editing and is therefore a cheaper service. Proofreading is a process of correcting errors in writing, such as grammatical, spelling, punctuation and other language mistakes.

  5. These are the key common aspects a proofreader evaluates when proofreading a document: Are there any spelling errors? Are full stops, commas, colons, semicolons, etc., used correctly? Have words that sound like one another but have different meanings, such as there, their and they’re, been used correctly? Have quotation marks and apostrophes been used appropriately? Are there any double spaces, particularly after full stops?
