When I proofread content, my main goal is to catch any errors and ensure the text is clear and professional. I treat proofreading as the final step before any content is published or submitted, making sure that it’s polished and ready to go. I always start by checking for spelling mistakes. I know modern spell checkers catch most errors, but I don’t rely solely on them. They might miss things like homophones, where words sound the same but are spelled differently (like "there" vs. "their"). Next, I check for any grammar issues. This includes making sure subject-verb agreement is correct, verb tenses are consistent, and modifiers are properly placed. I also pay close attention to punctuation like commas, semicolons, and apostrophes to ensure they’re used properly. In short, proofreading is my way of ensuring the work is free of errors and as polished as possible. It’s an important part of the process that I always make sure to do before sharing any content.
