WEEK 3_FREE ONLINE GRAMMAR CHECKER + SIMPLE ANIMATION

    Hi everyone, today's blog post is about an innovative tool that helps us to check our grammar. The tool that I want to talk about is a free grammar checker online which is Grammarly. Grammarly is the writing assistance platform that checked the spelling, grammar, punctuation, clarity also delivery errors. It is to detect and find a relevant replacement for the errors that it identifies. It also lets users modify their wordings, accent, and context. You can easily find this tool either on google or install Grammarly's free browser extension on your desktop. 

    Grammarly is recommended for students because it is easy to use, produces results, educates, and provides individual feedback. Students can upload a document or type their writing directly into the website, and it will quickly provide recommendations, feedback, and tell them if they have copied. 

    Grammarly's teaching feature will also explain why you should use the suggestions provided. If you use the short phrase and Grammarly will remind you need a more concise word, it will recommend different synonyms to replace it. It will explain you why you need a comma in certain spot if you misplace one. When you copied others work, the system will suggest ways for you to make it a genuine paraphrase. Grammarly provides a number of useful features. Grammarly also tend to provides ideas rather than answers when a correction is required. It provides teachable moments through feedback. 

    To start using this tool, you need to log in to your account. If you are a first-time user, you need to sign up using your email or Facebook. After successfully logging in, you can copy and paste your document into Grammarly. Otherwise, you can upload your Microsoft Word Document by hitting the button upload.

    Then, choose the file that you want to be checked and it will check for errors. Your chosen file will appear with suggestions about the correct grammar, punctuation, spelling, conciseness, and so on. The underlined words are the ones that need to be fixed. Once you click the words, it helps you correct the words directly.

The engagement feature helps make your writing more interesting and effective but you need to go premium. Same for the delivery feature that helps make the right impression on your reader. You also can check plagiarism but with a premium account.
