1. Check for Clarity:
- Does the main idea come through clearly?
- Are the sentences easy to understand, or do they need simplification?
2. Look for Structure:
- Does your writing have a clear introduction, body, and conclusion?
- Is there a logical flow from one idea to the next?
3. Grammar and Punctuation:
- Are the verb tenses consistent throughout?
- Have you used commas, periods, and other punctuation marks correctly?
4. Word Choice:
- Did you choose the most precise and effective words for the message you want to convey?
- Are there any awkward or unclear word choices?
5. Check for Repetition:
- Are you repeating the same words or phrases unnecessarily?
- Can you replace some repeated words with synonyms for variety?
6. Sentence Variety:
- Do your sentences vary in length and structure?
- Avoid long, monotonous sentences that might make the writing sound repetitive.
7. Spelling and Typos:
- Did you proofread your work for any spelling mistakes or typos?
8. Tone and Audience:
- Is the tone appropriate for the intended audience?
- Does it fit the purpose of your writing (informal, formal, persuasive, etc.)?
