Transcript
- The Writing and Structure Coach gives feedback on your own draft. It doesn't rewrite it for you.
- Choose the type of writing, paste your draft, and press Review my writing.
- First, the structure checks for an essay: an introduction with a clear position, body paragraphs and a conclusion.
- Then each point to review explains the problem, like a claim with no citation or words such as proves.
- Each one suggests what to do, and you decide what to change.
- The thesis helper turns your own position and reasons into one clear sentence.
Review your academic writing
Feedback on the structure, evidence, claims, tone and clarity of your own draft. It points out issues and explains them; you decide what to change.
- Choose the type of writing: essay, report, reflective writing or research paper.
- Paste your draft or add it from a file, then press Review my writing.
- Check the structure list for the type of writing you chose.
- Go through the points to review: claims without evidence, overclaiming, informal words, long sentences and more. Each one says why and suggests what to do.
- Use the thesis helper to turn your own position and reasons into a clear thesis statement.
