The corrections were allright

The corrections were allright, however changing some phrases made no sense. Maybe because it was not reviewed by somebody of the concerning field and or on a level of a master thesis. All in all corrections improved my article. Maybe it was helpful that I explained more explicity what I was looking for the second time. Conclusion: Value for money is unbeatbale! I can recommend Scribbr!

Cotton production in Brazil

We are really satisfied with Scribbr profreading service. We sent a scientific paper from a high-impact journal in agriculture science. The review process was easy and fast, with options of service, pages, expertise area, and English choice. The feedback was a great help to us and included explanations and tips on the most important aspects and common errors.

Worth It

I double myself all the time and when someone can check my work before submission, it's always great to have it reviewed by a person with a similar background in the field of work. I have been coming to Scribbr almost everytime and it's always great to see the comments for improvements as well as proofread.

For a more comprehensive edit, you can add a Structure Check or Clarity Check to your order. With these building blocks, you can customize the kind of feedback you receive.

You might be familiar with a different set of editing terms. To help you understand what you can expect at Scribbr, we created this table:

Types of editing Available at Scribbr?
Proofreading
Correction of superficial mistakes, such as typos, misspellings, punctuation errors and consistency errors.
Yes!
This is the “proofreading” in Scribbr’s standard service. It can only be selected in combination with editing.
Copy editing
Focus on grammar, syntax, style, tone and the conventions of the field. The editor also considers the internal logic of the text and flags any obvious contradictions.
Yes!
This is the “editing” in Scribbr’s standard service. It can only be selected in combination with proofreading.
Line editing
Focus on language, style, concision and choices. The editor helps you strengthen your story, polish your sentences and ensure that your use of language drives home your ideas.
Yes!
Select the Structure Check and Clarity Check to receive a comprehensive edit equivalent to a line edit.
Developmental editing (i.e. content editing, substantive editing)
This is the first step of the editing process and applies to very early drafts. The editor helps you structure your ideas, decide what story to tell and find direction for your writing.
No.
This kind of editing involves heavy rewriting and restructuring. Our editors cannot help with this.
