Start by revising your work at the global" level first revise/re-read the work as a whole. Next move to examine the different sections of the essay editing at the paragraph level. Finally, proof-read at the sentence level for grammar, spelling and errors. Emphasis is on the major writing concerns. Each section clearly develops and argues one of the main points of the essay. Each section makes adequate use of research material to support the point and documents this information properly. Each section links back to the main idea of the paper. The sections are connected to one another by transitional sentences.
