Proofreader Swap Workshop

Need to proofread your work, but can't stay focused? Swap your work with someone else's! Join us on Friday 12th June for a short presentation on proofreading and the chance to have your work read in exchange for reading another student's.

Students will be paired up based on their subject preferences, but since the objective is to look specifically at grammar, spelling and flow (rather than content), any subject can proofread for any subject.

Students are also welcome to attend remotely.

Please be aware that the time constraints of the morning may mean that only part of your work can be proofread.

Hot drinks, biscuits, and proofreading materials will be provided. We look forward to welcoming you!

You can drop in, or book your place here: https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=7L0z2sDAeUe07Yi8XNL1Y4hOIkhSbpVCpkLxotqwa51UMVc4RFo4NDY3WUVMMDRCSlpPNUNHQ0NNWC4u

The workshop will be held on Friday the 12th June, from 9:30 to 12:30 in the Sir David Williams Room.

The Sir David Williams Room is on the ground floor of the Lee Library and has step-free access.
