My favorite online grammar site is Purdue OWL. If you'd like to check it out you can find the website by clicking here. I started using this website when I was still going into English Teaching. One of my teachers introduced it to me and I loved all of the resources and how easy it is to use.
A very good resource, that I would recommend using, is the MLA and APA Style Guides that they have available. For college students, this is especially useful, because depending on what class you are taking and the preference of your teacher, you never know which they are going to require. I don't know about you, but I also forget that major and minor differences between the two, and it is nice to have a straightforward guide to reference.
Another great resource from the Purdue OWL site, is the Grammar and Punctuation section under the General Writing tab. I have used them many times throughout the semester while working on homework assignments for this class, and it has been a live saver. The grammar section is especially useful, because not only does it have the information, but it includes exercises that you can use to test your knowledge and ensure that you understand.
My grammatical error came from Yahoo Sports this week. While speaking of Ben Simmons and his recent foot injury, they said, "For now, he can do everything with a basketball but shoot it. The passing, the rebounding, finishing at the rim." This is definitely not a complete sentence and is missing some information. The issue is the second sentence. It just doesn't match up with the first sentence and does not flow well.
I really like this site too!
