REVIEW:
Professor Charles Darling of Capital Community-Technical College created this site for his English classes and to help the general public with grammar.
The Web site has online "lessons" explaining various grammar rules and problems. Material is categorized in levels -- "Sentence Level," "Paragraph Level," and
"Essay Level" -- each with subtopics covering specific grammatical concepts. The site includes online quizzes for most lessons (or the quizzes can be printed out for offline use). Logs of past questions and answers from the "Ask Grammar!" section are available at the site, or users can pose new questions. The site is a great resource for English and Language Arts teachers and students.
