I felt more capable of editing smoothly after receiving feedback from the tutor.

Hi Elana,
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review for Becoming An Editor!
We’re so glad to hear that you found the final assignment feedback valuable in developing your editing skills. (And learning from feedback is a skill in its own right!)
We wish you all the best in your editing career, and please get in touch if you need anything in the future!
Kind regards,
The Knowadays Team
Makes you do the hard work.
This program does more than just outline the principles of a freelance business. It makes you do the work. I had to consider how serious I was about freelancing as a career. Once I decided, I had to dig in to get the answers. (It was tough, but well worth it.) It also, brought things to my attention I hadn't thought about before. I read through the program once, then I decided to dig in. I am still working through it, applying all the applicable instructions.
All in all, I am glad I purchased the program and I believe my business will be built on a solid foundation.

It sounds like you’re engaging with the material in a really positive and productive way, and we’re so happy you feel it is helping build a strong foundation for your freelance business. That’s exactly what we aimed for!
We hope you continue to enjoy the process of following the toolkit exercises to set up your own business and that all your hard work pays off.
Please get in touch with us if you have any questions, and best of luck in your freelance career!

The course was fine
The course was fine, but there were a lot of typos, which is odd, since they also have courses for proofreading and editing. I did let them know.
I'm glad to hear the course is cleaned up.
Cheers!

Hi Jennifer,
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review for Formatting In Microsoft Word.
We appreciated your letting us know last year that there were some minor errors in the lesson content. When we first released the Windows version of Formatting In Microsoft Word, there were some surprising glitches, but we got these ironed out as quickly as we could. Since you were one of the first people to complete the course, we may not have been quick enough for you to benefit from this!
We do hope this didn’t affect your learning experience and you’ve been able to apply your new formatting skills in your work!
Kind regards,
The Knowadays Team
Fantastic support from the tutor team
Working through the 'Becoming a Proofreader' course was a brilliant experience! The course is very engaging and covers a lot of information, so it's definitely great value for money (especially given that some other proofreading courses cost thousands!). I also appreciated the course's advice regarding the practical side of freelance proofreading (e.g. client communication).
The Knowadays tutors are also really supportive and helpful. When I emailed the tutor team to ask for clarification on some of the course material, I received a very detailed and friendly reponse (thanks Simon!).
I would definitely recommend Knowadays if you're thinking about working as a proofreader – or if you want to improve your communication/writing skills!

Hi Mary,
Wow! Thank you so much for that glowing review!
We are thrilled that you enjoyed your experience with Becoming A Proofreader and found it so comprehensive! And it’s great that you made the most of having access to our brilliant tutor team. It's not uncommon for people to find some element of the course a bit trickier than the rest, so you made the right choice in reaching out – that’s exactly what the tutors are there for. Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you need anything else.
We wish you all the best in your proofreading career!
Kind regards,

PROOF READING HARDER THAN I REALISED
Did not realise what was involved in proofreading professionally. I was a typist for 20 years plus, accurracy essential. The course IS harder than I expected, BUT, well written, easy to follow, quizzes. Began the course last year, stopped due to ill health, told to complete at my pace. The course is keeping me occupied (60% now complete) and could give me a part time income. GO FOR IT

Wonderful Courses, Stellar Customer Service
I have had an excellent experience with Knowadays. Becoming a Proofreader was an extremely helpful course, and I highly recommend it. I have now purchased nearly every other Knowadays course, and I am excited to dive into them.

Becoming a Proofreader course
I can't speak to the guaranteed work trial with Proofed because I haven't gotten that far, but I did enjoy the Becoming a Proofreader course. It took me 11 days to complete the coursework, including all the practice exercises, and then another 2 weeks to finish the final assignment, have it graded, and go over what I got wrong with one of the tutors. I passed with distinction (over 80%) on my first try with a few points to spare, which was great because it costs $75 each for a second and third try. My favorite parts of the proofreading course were the number of quizzes and practice exercises with accompanying answer keys to test whether you fully understood the material in each section and the wide-ranging information about the different industries where a proofreader can find work, as well as the different types of documents and styles that might be required. I'm looking forward to starting the Becoming an Editor course.

Hi Rebecca,
Thanks for taking the time to leave such a helpful and detailed review! We’re happy to hear you enjoyed Becoming A Proofreader (congratulations on achieving a distinction score first time!), and we hope you have the same experience with Becoming An Editor.
It’s great to know you enjoyed the interactive and knowledge-checking elements of the course. We’re always looking to improve our content for other learners, so if there’s anything else you’d like to see in the courses, please let us know!
Best of luck with the editing course, and please reach out to the tutor team if you need anything at all!

Knowadays–Yes!
Writing is hard work.
(Note: I'm a little nervous here in this review as I hope to avoid any grammatical errors:)
That said, I think Knowadays has delivered an effective online program that thoroughly covers and teaches the art of writing, or should I say, the artistry in support of the writing.
I have completed the Proofreading course and am now in the middle of the Editing course. The lessons are all easily digestible, with mini-quizzes and useful exercises. Support staff: All great!
Already working a business from home, I'm hoping to hone my previous writing skills into another pursuit. Whether it is with Knowadays/Proofed or independently, the learning gained here has been worthwhile.

Excellent experience so far
My experience with Knowadays has been very positive so far. I passed the proofreading class and am working on the editing class. My goal is to gain experience through their guaranteed work program with Proofed. I hope that will work out as advertised.
The customer service has been excellent. They even refunded a portion of the course fee I had already paid when a sale came along. I have contacted tutors when I had questions and to review my final project. They have all been friendly, professional, and very helpful.
The “proof” will be if I can find work when the course is complete.

I was impressed with the course. I came in thinking I knew what was involved due to my prior education, but it's significantly more in-depth and complex. Would definitely recommend if you're thinking of getting into proofreading and don't have a proofreading background.
