Grammarly is an online proofreading tool that checks text for grammar, spelling, punctuation and other errors that you might be committing while you are typing your article or paragraphs.
The free version can already do more than enough of what you need and that's what I'm using. It is available as a browser extension, a Microsoft Office add-in, a desktop app you can install on your computer or a web page you can visit.
It can be a big help to those who writes a lot or for those who wants to enhance their writings.
I think even those who are already good in English can still benefit from it because sometimes due to fast typing, they also tend to mistype or forget a word which can also check by Grammarly.
The errors you committed will be highlighted by red marks, and when you click on it, Grammarly will give you a suggested correction which you can accept or ignore.
The errors that I usually committed are forgetting to put an article (a, an,the), wrong tense, and sometimes spelling as well.
That's why I like Grammarly. It helps me to enhance my writings.
For those you want to enhance their writings a well, I recommend that you also use Grammarly.

I have been using Grammarly too. It also improves my writings. My common mistakes are just like yours too. In addition to that, it also give me notice about my use of passive sentences. Haha! Grammarly always check my post before I publish it online.

@bluelion Hahaha! Sometimes Grammarly gives a suggestion that I don't mind at all. There are times it is awkward for me to use their suggestions.

It's good to know that Grammarly is helping you as well. But in this article of mine, Grammarly failed to check my error in my last sentence, the "you" should be "who" and "a" should be "as", but I think it's beyond Grammarly's capabilities, it is really my fault. Haha.

@bluelion I need a checker too not because I am weak in grammar but because I am careless

Yes, here in myLot, it's like a more free environment where you can share whatever you feel like sharing, and no one will criticize you for wrong grammar. But for me, I still use it here, because I still have a lot to improve, and Grammarly is helping me.

@allknowing Yes, that's also a tendency if you type too fast.

I've had it for some time on my chrome browser and firefox, but I've not downloaded it again for cool novo which I'm using right now. It's not 100% correct all the time, but overall it is a big help.
