Welcome to HAVE FUN WITH ENGLISH

I would like to welcome all students at the EOI Pontevedra to a blog where they will find a lot of information about the school together with a wide range of activities to practise and improve their English. I´m sure most of them will find the activities in the blog both amusing and enjoyable! Hope you learn a lot... and please, let me know if there is anything you want me to include!!

ITip OF OCTOBER

Time does fly! October is about to come to an end and I haven't posted my ITip of the month yet!

As my students are coping with the writing task in unit 1, I thought it would be a good idea to give them some feedback on their writing skills. That is the main reason why I have chosen Grammarly as this month's tip.

Grammarly is an app that automatically detects potential grammar, spelling, punctuation, word choice and style mistakes. Using artificial intelligence and natural language processing, Grammarly offers not only grammar and spelling checking but also suggestions about word choice, style and writing clarity. 

It offers three different versions of the app: 

Grammarly for Microsoft Office. You can install Grammarly as an add-in. No matter whether you have problems with dangling modifiers or wordiness, Grammarly will spot them all for you!

Grammarly for Windows 7+ or MacOS 10.8+ right on your desktop to access your documents or open a new project with one single click.

Grammarly for Chrome. You will write your best with Grammarly for Chrome. It will eliminate writing errors and find the perfect word for you to express what you want to say. Besides, by registering your account you will get a writing report each week! This will help you understand your mistakes with clear explanations so that you won't make them ever again. This free browser extension will allow you to write mistake-free in Gmail, Facebook or anywhere else you write on the web!
