Importance of proofreading

Have you ever been irritated by carelessly written websites or brochures?

A good text is correct in spelling, grammar and punctuation. It is pleasant to read and leaves a good impression, because the reader can focus on the content.
This is important for all sorts of text: websites, brochures, letters, résumés, essays, research papers or books, but also for short memos or emails.

Because a writer usually is very familiar with his own work, errors can slip into the text easily. Even a good software is not able to detect them all and to produce a linguistically accurate text. A pair of fresh eyes can help by reviewing the text. Proofreading is the final step to complete a written document. Especially, when it is written in a foreign language, proofreading is indispensable.

Have you written a text in German but prefer a native speaker to proofread it? Would you like to publish text in German or send a letter or brochure to a German speaking customer? Would you like to apply for a job in Germany? Are you preparing an academic paper (essay, bachelor or master thesis) in German? Are you in doubt about the commas or whether the spelling is consistent?
I am happy to help.
