You’ll learn what ‘good writing’ looks like
You’ll see how a reader-focused approach is different from traditional writing. Structure, language, and design can work together to make any text quicker and easier to read.
You’ll make everyone’s lives easier by giving early feedback about coherence, accuracy, and ease of understanding.
Proofreading needs to be done, but probably not by you. Good reviewers don’t get sidetracked by missing commas.
You’ll give feedback that’s easy to act on and builds the confidence and ability of your writers.
