Reading Aloud - UNC Writing Center

Reading aloud is one of the best techniques to help you revise your writing. You will probably hear mistakes that you did not notice when you were reading and writing silently.

Here are some pointers for reading aloud:
• Read at a normal pace.
• Read everything exactly as it is printed.
• If possible, have a friend (or your computer) read your text aloud while you listen.
• As you read or listen, mark anything that sounds odd.
