"Hi, I'm Kari Wethington for expertvillage.com. Today we're going to talk about ways to instantly improve your writing. Always reread your work. No one’s perfect on first tries. So it's super important to go back and reread everything you've written to make sure you got across the point you wanted and that your punctuation is correct, your spelling is correct; make sure to use a careful eye and you'll catch any spelling errors, any sentences that are a little bit too long, any punctuation error, etc. You often catch your own mistakes on that first reread. Especially if you're sending an email or something at your workplace. If you don't reread, you never know what might happen. A simple mistake might become something that's forwarded around the office and will come back to haunt you later. So that's one good example of when it's always important to reread."
