I have a .doc file ready to download for one of you to proofread. You must be a good and professional writer. This report is very important to me, I've corrected the mistakes that I caught, but I know there are many more that I overlooked. I have $10 paypal ready. My heatware is in my sig. PM me. I need this .doc back w/ the corrected grammar in about an hour. Thanks.




P.S. Before y'all go flaming on my laziness, I just want a little help on proofreading my spellings and grammar in my essay. The topic of the essay is on News Broadcastings. One of the my primary weaknesses is my inability to use 's' or not. Such as "News broadcastings has taken an important turn in recent years" or "News broadcasting has taken an important turn in recent years" I'm also quite bad at using "was written" "was threatened" "had been recovered" "have been recovered" type of grammartical errors. If any of you can give me some pointers on the correct ways of using these, I would be appreciated.

The paper is 4 pages double spaced. It is just a paper for Political Science 100 lol. It's not some lawyer level essay. Just an entry college level paper. But I really want the paper to be free of grammartical errors, that's all.

try spellcheck...
or just try learning it.
you are the one writing this not us.
why should "we", the internet community, help another idiot pretend to earn something?
do your own work, and let it stand as your own...
you want someone to proofread a school paper? have mommy and daddy do it.

People always ask other people to proofread their stuff. Calm down, I can't believe people are so anal these days.

amnesiac has my essay right now, thanks for all your help tho. I knew I can turn to ATOT for last minute help ;) :D

I actually like proofreading other people's paper. But it is a lot harder to catch my own mistakes than catching others' mistakes. I wish I am more efficient in writing proper English essays because I would love to proofread for anybody, for free.

dude, chill out, he's just using all his resources... two (or more) heads are better than one. If you don't wanna help, just ignore it.

SOS, I'd be glad to help, but it's late and I don't think I'd be able to do a professional job with this state of mind... good luck

SOS, check your PM. I have successfully drained what's left of my cognitive ability for the day. Going to bed now.

Simple proofreading is morally acceptable. Wanton substitution of bad grammar and poor writing composition for college-level writing ability, however, is not. While I have no way at present of knowing which applies here, my suggestion would be for you to bone up on basic English skills, as it will help you in the long run.
