Academic Proofreading and Editing — Language, Structure, Style

Even brilliant research gets rejected when grammar slips or the argument is buried. FREKUM WRITES offers two editing tiers — a light proofread for polished drafts, or a full substantive edit for structural improvements. Both delivered with tracked changes.

Proofreading (light edit)

  • Grammar, punctuation, spelling
  • Consistency of tense, voice, and terminology
  • Citation-style compliance (APA, MLA, Harvard, Chicago)
  • Formatting: headings, spacing, page numbers

Substantive edit

  • Everything in proofreading, plus:
  • Paragraph restructuring for stronger flow
  • Rewriting unclear sentences
  • Tightening wordy passages
  • Adding transitions between sections
  • Comments on argument strength and evidence gaps

Turnaround

5,000-word paper: proofread in 24 hours, substantive edit in 48 hours. Full theses (60,000+ words): 5–10 days.

Frequently asked questions

Do I get tracked changes?

Yes. You get a Word file with tracked changes plus a clean version so you can review every edit.

Will editing affect my Turnitin score?

No. Editing does not add content — it improves what you already wrote. Similarity does not change.
