<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Hi<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">I am working with an English Language learner who has a great deal of difficulty with writing, and in particular with English Grammar. While most Univ. level students are fine with the MS Word
grammar supports, he was looking for additional support.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">I’m aware of the Grammarly product, but have not tried it. A major drawback is that it is $29.95/ month, presumably in USD.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">There is an educational version of the product, but it requires a site license purchase.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Has anyone tried this product- can you give me feedback on it?
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Any other products, particularly those that would work with MS Word?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
