The corrections were allright

The corrections were allright, however changing some phrases made no sense. Maybe because it was not reviewed by somebody of the concerning field and or on a level of a master thesis. All in all corrections improved my article. Maybe it was helpful that I explained more explicity what I was looking for the second time. Conclusion: Value for money is unbeatbale! I can recommend Scribbr!

Cotton production in Brazil

We are really satisfied with Scribbr profreading service. We sent a scientific paper from a high-impact journal in agriculture science. The review process was easy and fast, with options of service, pages, expertise area, and English choice. The feedback was a great help to us and included explanations and tips on the most important aspects and common errors.

Worth It

I double myself all the time and when someone can check my work before submission, it's always great to have it reviewed by a person with a similar background in the field of work. I have been coming to Scribbr almost everytime and it's always great to see the comments for improvements as well as proofread.
