Hi Nancy,
Thanks for your review of Becoming A Proofreader!
The tutors will be very touched by your kind words, and we’re so glad that you appreciated their support! You’re right that there is a lot to learn – and the learning never ends! But you always have the course as a resource, and it will hopefully guide you as you continue expanding your proofreading knowledge.
Thank you again for taking the time to write a review, and we wish you the best of luck on your proofreading journey!
Kind regards,
The Knowadays Team
Comprehensive, Challenging, and Worth Every Penny!
This is the second Knowadays course I’ve taken, and it didn’t disappoint. Like Becoming a Proofreader, Becoming an Editor is well put together and packed with useful info. It covers everything you need to get started in editing, and the practice exercises are great: challenging enough to make you think, and directly tied to what you just learned. Overall, a solid course and definitely worth the price. I’d happily recommend it to anyone looking to break into editing.

I am very grateful for this experience.
Hi. I wrote a review after completing the Becoming a Proofreader course; this is my update. I recently passed the Becoming an Editor course, gratefully with distinction. Tutor Rebecca was encouraging and answered my questions carefully. I'm now onboarding with Proofed for my trial period. Since I had had some proofreading and editing experience before I started the course "bundle," I assumed it mostly would be a refresher. But I learned a LOT, and I'm sure I'll continue learning as long as I work in this field. Knowadays and Proofed are well organized, and the tutors, staff, and resource materials are excellent. I'm not sure where I'll be working a year from now, but I know I'll be using the knowledge I've gained from these companies. I'm grateful for the experience and consider the course bundle a very good investment.

Exceptional!
The course was incredibly thorough, and I routinely use the syllabus when I proofread. The tutors are exceptional, both via e-mail and video and are a wealth of knowledge. If they don't have an answer to my question, they research until they find one.

A More Marketable Proofreader
I learned so much from the Becoming a Proofreader course. Though I have worked in the field for years, the course supplemented my prior knowledge--and revealed many things I did not know! I am a better proofreader and am more marketable with my CPD certification from Knowadays.

Deep and Career Altering Training
The Knowadays Proofreader course has the depth necessary to make this change in a person's career direction. Each module has an appropriate length so that even a working person or student with other coursework can take these modules at a pace that will fit any schedule. The quizzes are very helpful; being non-graded quizzes makes them more reinforcing than frustating as you progress through the course. Ample opportunity is given to try new skills through the exercises provided throughout the course. The tutor feedback after the Final Assignment was complete and helpful. I recommend this course of study without hesitation to anyone interested in proofreading as an area of work.

Rich and exhaustive course content and professional tutors
When I started the course, I thought I knew most of what I needed to know about proofreading, but I was pleasantly surprised to learn there was so much more to discover. The content was rich, exhaustive and well presented. The tutors were professional, knowledgeable and very accessible whenever I had questions or requests for additional clarification. If you want to expand your proofreading competence, this course won't disappoint. In my experience, it was money well spent.

Skip the test--Buy half-price
The test is…questionable. I attempted it twice at the start of my career and was awarded low scores. Good enough to pass but too low to be enrolled in their partner agency, which was fair enough. However, interestingly, the feedback for my second attempt contradicted the feedback for my first.
Nevertheless, over the following two and a half years, I succeeded in joining three remote proofreading agencies. This year, I scrupulously attempted the Knowadays test a third time, as it's only wise to have access to more work. Surprisingly, I was awarded the same score as last. Furthermore, the feedback was quite fussy, to say the least, marking me down for obscure "stylistic" differences that the course doesn't seem to support.
Giving them the benefit of the doubt, perhaps their marking criteria are specific to a fault, less about proofreading ability and more about matching their preferred style.
The other possibility is that they keep an endless list of potential "errors" on hand so that people will pay up to £100 for repeat attempts. (Honestly, charging anything in this regard is quite telling.) Moreover, if every capable proofreader were to join their partner agency, the proofreaders would dramatically outnumber the available tasks.
In any case, the course itself is still informative. I advise waiting until it's on sale, working through it carefully, skipping the test, and working hard to break into the industry elsewhere. Proofreading is a terrific occupation—my current career offers me significantly more spare time and higher earnings than my previous jobs.

Hi there,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts about the Becoming A Proofreader final assignment.
We’re sorry to hear you weren’t happy with the testing process. We encourage you to reach out to the tutor team to discuss your feedback – for your early attempts or the more recent one. The tutors will be happy to answer your questions, clarify any points, and generally make sure that you are comfortable with the feedback. And that includes if you disagree with anything – the team is always open to discussion!
The tutors are contactable anytime via email, and every learner is invited to schedule a one-on-one video call after their assignment is marked. If you did not take us up on this offer at the time, you are still very welcome to do so.
We are transparent about our final assignment process, and the course provides a detailed explanation of how it all works, but we are happy to supply more information.
Each marking point in our final assignments directly links back to something taught in the course, and we state the relevant lesson with each item listed in the assignment feedback. The tutors mark tests according to a set marking scheme, and they regularly review and discuss grading to ensure they consistently follow the same approach.
The first assignment is included in the course price, and the two subsequent attempts are available at a cost of GB£50/US$75 each. This fee covers the tutor time involved in marking tests and providing feedback. We supply this information up front on the website and in the course so there are no hidden surprises!
We want every learner to succeed, whether that’s at Proofed or elsewhere. We provide practice exercises, mock assignments, detailed feedback, and on-hand tutor support – all with this aim in mind.
We appreciate your recommendation of the course and are glad to know that you found it informative. It’s great that you found work as a professional proofreader after completing Becoming A Proofreader, and we wish you continued success in your career!
Our door will always remain open if you would like to discuss the course or your assignment feedback further.
Kind regards,
The Knowadays Team

I am so glad I decided to take the Becoming A Proofreader course. I have been constantly impressed with the quick response from everyone at the Tutor Team and grateful for the help and thorough explanations I always receive.

Thank you for this course!
The Becoming a Proofreader course is comprehensive and well-structured. I liked the included quizzes because they helped me assess my grasp of the course content as I progressed through the lessons. The tutors are true teachers! Whenever I contacted them, one would promptly reply with a helpful, respectful, encouraging response. I always felt that they wanted me to learn and succeed, and I appreciate that they sent me so many mock assignments to work on to prepare for the final. The only improvement I suggest is that the course be made keyword searchable. This would have been helpful to me, and I believe it would be helpful to other learners.

Hi Roxanne,
Thank you for your positive review of Becoming A Proofreader!
You are absolutely correct in your feeling that the tutors want every learner to succeed, and it’s wonderful to know you found their assistance so helpful and supportive! Please continue to reach out if ever you have a proofreading conundrum, and the team will be happy to help.
We appreciate your feedback on the navigability of the content. Due to the workings of the platform, it’s not possible to embed a search feature in the course. However, we do provide a PDF contents list of all the modules, lessons, pages, and section headings in Becoming A Proofreader, and this document is searchable to help you locate the topic you need (you can find the download link in the last lesson of the course if you don’t have it already!).
It’s great to know that you otherwise found the content thorough and well laid out and that you liked the self-assessment aspect of the quizzes. Don’t forget – you can continue to return to these as often as you like if you need a refresher!
Thanks again for taking the time to leave us a review, and we wish you all the best in your proofreading career!
