ABSTRACT
This chapter talks about rewriting and proofreading, in exams, we have no time for rewriting, but for coursework it is important to take time to revise our work to improve its clarity and logical development. In both situations, proofreading is essential to avoid the small errors that may make our work inaccurate or even difficult to understand. Although it is tempting to think that the first draft of an essay is adequate, it is almost certain that it can be improved. The chapter suggests that after completing our first draft, we should leave it for a day and then reread it, asking some questions ourself to test our capability. It also provides two practical exercises for proof reading and one practical exercise for rewriting. The chapter presents a suggestion for improvement on rewriting and proofreading.
