Hey, guys! Welcome to my video.
My name is Adam, and I’m currently studying biotechnology. In the future, I would like to work in the pharmaceutical industry and become an industrial pharmacist.
And I think we can all agree on something...
When we write in English, it’s really easy to make small mistakes without even noticing them.
You can read your text two or three times and somehow... the mistake is still there.
And honestly, I’m not perfect in English either.
I still make grammar or spelling mistakes sometimes, especially when I’m writing something with scientific vocabulary.
But I’ve learned that using the right tools can make checking your work much easier.
Since I’m studying biotechnology, I already have to work with scientific vocabulary and write things like laboratory reports.
And later, as an industrial pharmacist, writing clearly will be even more important because I could have to write reports, emails, or quality-control documents.
So today, my goal is pretty simple.
I want to show you how Virtual Writing Tutor can help me check my writing before I send an important professional document.
So guys, stay with me for the next few minutes and follow the steps with me.
It’s actually really easy to use.
And you’ll see that with just a few clicks, you can find mistakes that you probably wouldn’t notice by yourself.
So... let’s get into it.
Okay guys, so imagine I’m working in a pharmaceutical company.
Maybe I’m working in quality control, and after testing a pharmaceutical product, I have to write a report for my supervisor.
Obviously, I want that report to be clear and professional.
Because if I make grammar or spelling mistakes, some information could be confusing.
And I definitely don’t want to send an important document to my supervisor and realize later that it had a bunch of mistakes in it.
Especially in a professional environment.
For example, after doing a quality-control test, I might have to explain what I observed, what the results were, and if there was a problem with the product.
That’s a lot of information to communicate clearly.
And if I’m writing all of that in English, there’s always a chance that I miss a few mistakes.
But... there’s an easy way to check.
In the next few minutes, I’m going to show you how Virtual Writing Tutor can help with this problem.
Alright guys, first, open your browser.
Then, open a new tab, click on the address bar, and type virtualwritingtutor.com.
Hit enter...
And... here we are.
At the top left-hand corner, you can see the Virtual Writing Tutor logo.
Just under it, there is the blue navigation menu with different links, like Writing Tools, Lessons, and Membership.
Now, in the middle of the screen, you have this big text area.
This is where you can type or paste your text.
And just above the text area, you can see different buttons.
There is Improve Writing, Check Grammar, Check Level, Writing Advice, and Word Count.
And if you look at the bottom right-hand corner of the text area, you can also see different icons for some of the other tools.
There are a lot of things you can do on this website, but today, guys, I’m going to focus on Check Grammar.
So... let’s try it.
Okay, so I already prepared a short professional text related to the pharmaceutical industry.
I’m just going to copy it and paste it here in the text area.
Before I send this text to my supervisor, I want to make sure my English is correct.
So now, I’m going to click on Check Grammar.
And... there we go.
Virtual Writing Tutor analyzes my text and shows me the mistakes that I should look at.
Now I can go through the corrections one by one.
If I see a grammar mistake, I can look at the suggestion and correct it.
I can do the same thing with spelling mistakes.
And what I like about this is that I’m still the one correcting my work.
The website helps me find the problems, but I can still decide what changes make sense in my text.
So I’ll just take a few seconds here and fix the mistakes...
[pause while correcting the text on screen]
Alright... much better.
Now I can read my text one last time before I send it.
And that’s basically how I could use Virtual Writing Tutor in the pharmaceutical industry.
I could use it before sending an email, a report, or another professional document in English.
It’s basically one last check before sending something important.
And... that’s pretty much it, guys!
At the beginning of the video, I wanted to show you how Virtual Writing Tutor could help me with my writing as a future industrial pharmacist.
And now we’ve seen how easy it is.
We went to the website, looked at some of the main tools, and used Check Grammar to check a professional text.
Of course, Virtual Writing Tutor doesn’t replace your own knowledge.
You still have to understand what you’re writing and make sure the information itself is correct.
But it can definitely help you catch those little mistakes that you don’t always notice by yourself.
So guys, next time you have to write something important in English, try Virtual Writing Tutor and see what mistakes you can find.
And that’s it for me!
Thanks for watching, guys. I hope this was useful, and I’ll see you next time!
