In order to write a good research paper, I need guidance on proofreading softwares/tools that help make a paper a good piece of academic writing.
install Grammarly on your firefox explorer..... or use this service: https://ludwig.guru/ Note it's not free.....but i am not sure what you mentioned exist at all...
I found PerfectIt an outstanding tool: it works as an add-on for MS Word.
My colleague reads his papers backwards, but it didn't work for me. I use a text-reading program, either with Word or a standalone program called Text Aloud, to listen to my papers for making changes. You need to find something that works for you.
It really depends on what you are trying to achieve. In the second part of your question, you seem to think that proofreading will "make a paper a good piece of academic writing". I can guarantee you that proofreading will not turn your paper into good academic writing. You might be able to pick up spelling and grammar mistakes and make it more readable, but a perfectly proofread paper doesn't always equate to a good academic paper. This is why I discourage our customers from ordering proofreading and editing services. http://jo.my/scienceeditorium
Try our manuscript health check service instead. http://jo.my/manuscripthealthcheck
I am TESOL PhD students and always makes proofreading for my PhD classmates.If you want any support I can help you.Another solution is to read academic a lot.
You can use several strategies for proof reading particularly if you intend to improve your writing.
I would suggest Grammarly as well, and you dont need the paid version unless you need deep proofreading. It works for me , but ofcourse this is just a guide, you can always use professional help from academically approved readers in your faculty.
Poor English, scientific language or format can lead to rejection of an article or significantly delay the review process. Spending an additional week on such issues can save months later.
