Help me hand in a proper paper.

I need some help proofreading around 4-5 pages of text in English.
I am a senior in high school in Israel and I am writing a final paper for my psychology course titled "A comparison between the relationships of Holocaust survivors with their children and with their grandchildren, particularly on the subject of openness about the Holocaust."
(Yeah, I went overboard, and now I can't find a way to shorten the title.)
I moved to Israel just over two years ago from N.America so I have the option of writing my paper in English, which is clearly preferable for me as I feel more comfortable in English and I never learned how to write a proper paper in Hebrew.
The problem is I also have not written too much in English over the past two years and I feel like I'm becoming rusty. Also, my teacher is supposed to go over the project before I hand it to the ministry of education for the final evaluation, but as it's in English my teacher will be of little use.
So, askmefi, I am turning to you guys for help - I have written the two main theoretical chapters of my paper and it feels choppy and weird. Any of you guys got ten minutes to read it over?
Thanks a bunch.

This post was deleted for the following reason: Best of luck with the paper, but asking people to proofread your paper isn't really an okay use of askme. -- cortex
Response by poster: I'm still worried. over the past two years i've posted on mefi, forums and blogs so I assume that's why my post here looks fine. I'm really rusty on writing things that are actually meant to be handed in.

I'm not sure how much help I can be, but I'll read it. Is there a link, or would you need my e-mail address?
