Proof-reading:


Drawing on our large network of experienced proof-readers, we offer proof-reading for English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Chinese, Japanese and Arabic. The procedure would typically be as follows:
  • client submits outline details of the job type by means of the on-line form and a sample text (we suggest this is sent as a Word attachment to trans@lingualearn.co.uk)
  • we quote a fee based on certain factors such as length, timescale, language, the degree of accuracy required, and the technical difficulty of the text
  • Payment can be made online using a credit card, by bank transfer or cheque
Lingualearn is able to offer three very fast and flexible proof-reading services:


1. Bronze Service Proof-reading (high accuracy)

This service checks for spelling and grammar mistakes using proof-reading software and one proof-reader reading through the text slowly.  This service is sufficiently accurate for most letters, e-mails, and documents with a small number of readers.

The cost of the bronze service is in the region of £20 to £25 [approx' $38 US, EUR 38, $50 CAN] per 1000 words for English; Western European languages and other languages tend to be a little higher.


2. Silver Service Proof-reading (very high accuracy)

This service checks for spelling and grammar mistakes using proof-reading software and two proof-readers reading through the text slowly.  This service is sufficiently accurate for presentations and documents with a small to medium number of readers.

The cost of the silver service is in the region of £50 [approx' $75 US, EUR 75, $100 CAN] per 1000 words for English; Western European languages and other languages tend to be a little higher.


3. Gold Service Proof-reading (extremely high accuracy)

For very special or important documents, and those with a large number of readers e.g. brochures and websites.  This service checks for spelling and grammar mistakes using proof-reading software and three proof-readers reading through the text slowly. 

The cost of the gold service is in the region of £75 [approx' $115 US, EUR 115, $150 CAN] per 1000 words for English; Western European languages and other languages tend to be a little higher. Proof-reading of texts written by non-native speakers of the target language may cost considerably more.



Reduce the risk of those embarrassing and distracting errors - contact us today!  Please note that we offer a high quality, flexible and rapid service. Our proof-readers may suggest improvements to the text as well as correct errors, however, we require specific guidelines or templates to carry out editing work, and this is normally charged extra.  We are able to work to tight deadlines and with many different types of text.

For a fast and free quotation, please complete our short on-line form in the first instance - it only takes 5 minutes to complete. The minimum order for proof-reading is currently £100. [approx' $160 US, EUR 160, $200 CAN].
