This course challenged me and I feel like I gained a new skill. It took more time than I anticipated to finish but I really appreciate the extensive practice.

This General Proofreading course is very rigorous but provides many practice opportunities. In addition to rigorous content, the course helps students become professional proofreaders by including modules that teach new practitioners how to set up their businesses, find clients, manage their time, and be prepared to deal with business-related taxes. It's an excellent course--worth every penny!

The material is extremely relevant and goes beyond just proofreading basics into marketing and client acquisitions. I love the support network and the PA staff's eagerness to help. Worth every penny!

The course was easy to understand. It started from the basics and worked up to actual proofreading. There was plenty of quizzes and practice sheets and essays to ensure success.

I just passed the General Proofreading course (not with a perfect score, but on my first try). I appreciate that I did not have a set timeframe to finish. My "journey" has been fraught with many obstacles. I nearly lost my husband twice during this time. Not to sound overly pious, but as a believer, I felt compelled to seek some means that might enable me to stay at home and care for his medical needs. I believe God gave me peace to take the course so that I can accomplish that goal. Being a newbie, I know I have many steps to go in order to reach my goal (including coming up with a "catchy" name). However, I believe Caitlyn and the Proofread Anywhere community will have my back and be there for much-needed advice. Keep up the good work, I plan to.

Joann, we are so happy we could be of some support for you during this journey. Congratulations on passing the General Proofreading final exam on the first try! It's not an easy one but you did it because you worked hard for it! We hope you and your husband are well. Cheers to your future success as a professional proofreader!

I signed up for Proofread Anywhere after making sure that it was not one of those scams out there. While looking around, I found amazing reviews from very reputable companies. So, I gave it a try, and I was so glad I did. The lessons were very easy to follow and understand. I signed up for the "ignite plus", which included the final exam at the end. Before the exam, I took advantage of all of the examples that were provided to prepare for the exam. I passed with no problems. This program also tells you step-by-step how to set up your own business, which is just great. Then there is all of this support before with people on Facebook and afterward. Well worth the money. I feel so prepared for my new business and adventure. Thank you so much.

I highly recommend the Proofread Anywhere General Proofreading course. The course is self-paced and split into modules providing the necessary lessons in grammar, punctuation, and spelling needed to be a competent proofreader. The course also covers the marketing and business side when venturing into the freelance world. I thoroughly enjoyed the course!

The classes were great. I learned so much that was helpful for what I desire to do. I was able to take my time without any pressure. Caitlin was so amazing and enthusiastic, it was contagious. After waiting weeks for my final exam to be corrected, I contacted support. For whatever reason, I learned that they had not received it. I re-sent my paperwork that day, then I heard back within two days. I passed and got my certificate. I would highly recommend this program to anyone who is interested in this type of venture.
