I've started writing a term paper and wondering if there is anyone or any place that I could submit my paper and get feedback before it's graded? It's worth a large portion of my grade & I'd like someone to review it when I'm done.
I won't read whole papers, but if you post a paragraph or two that you really have questions about AFTER you have edited and proofed it several times, I'll check them for you.

Thanks...it's probably going to take a few more weeks, but glad to know I can post a few paragraphs here.
Yes, there are several options available for you to get feedback on your term paper before it's graded. Here are a few suggestions:
1. Professor or instructor: One of the best resources for feedback is your professor or instructor. They are familiar with the assignment requirements and can provide valuable insights and suggestions for improvement. Reach out to them and ask if they are willing to review your paper or if they can recommend someone who can.
2. Writing center or tutoring services: Many educational institutions have writing centers or tutoring services where you can receive assistance with your writing. These services often offer one-on-one sessions with writing tutors who can provide feedback on your paper. Check if your school has such services and schedule an appointment.
3. Peer review: Consider forming a writing or study group with fellow classmates who are also working on term papers. Share your papers with each other and provide feedback and constructive criticism. Peer review can be helpful because your classmates may offer unique perspectives and spot errors or weaknesses that you may have missed.
4. Online writing communities: There are numerous online platforms and communities where you can submit your papers for feedback. Websites like Scribophile, Critique Circle, and Writing.com allow writers to upload their work and receive critiques from fellow writers. Remember to follow the rules and norms of these communities to ensure productive feedback.
5. Professional editing or proofreading services: If you are seeking more comprehensive feedback and are willing to invest some money, you can consider hiring a professional editor or proofreader. They can provide detailed feedback on your paper's structure, content, grammar, and style. Websites like Upwork, Fiverr, or editing service companies can help you find qualified professionals.
When seeking feedback, provide clear instructions on the specific areas you would like reviewers to focus on. It's also important to keep in mind that feedback is subjective, so it's essential to carefully consider the suggestions and use them to improve your paper according to your own judgement.
