ProofWriterTM Advantage
Now, you can add the ProofWriter Advantage to any Pearson ESL writing book.
When students use ProofWriter to revise and edit their writing
independently, teachers can focus their feedback on higher-level
writing skills instead of spending hours correcting common grammatical
mistakes made by English Language Learners.
ProofWriter provides students with immediate individualized
feedback on Grammar, Usage, Style, and Mechanics allowing them to catch

students work to develop their writing. When students are made aware of
their errors and are given guidance on how to correct them they can
begin to develop the skills to review and revise their writing
independently.
