What is the best online course to learn English grammar?

I speak English as my second language. I have been thinking of doing something to improve my English grammar since I am not very confident in it. An online course is my most preferable option.

So I started the cousera-English Grammar and punctuation course recently.

Was wondering whether there is a better one available somewhere online that I'm unaware of.

https://www.coursera.org/learn/grammar-punctuation Simply signup and click the enrol button, at the bottom there will be an option to audit the course for free, plus they have a lot of other amazing resources but usually they are packaged in specialisations. So the trick is, open the specialisation and see list of all the available courses and then search for each course separately.

Glad that helped! Grammar is the most important thing to get right first.

So if you’re a PM that needs to use English, I’d suggest doing more English grammar classes. I see incorrect grammar in your post and replies making it more difficult to read. Having diversity on a team though is incredibly valuable and your unique POV will be worth sticking through! coursera has a free, online course: https://www.coursera.org/learn/grammar-punctuation/

If you’re working in a different language I’ll assume your grammar is fine. Therefore, to share a learning I had through my career is to make it as easy as possible for people to reply to and digest.

I’ll keep emails as short as possible and the questions as clear as possible. I use formatting to call out my questions and will do that in slack, email, Jira etc as needed.

To get to that point I usually write and then re-write something. The more important the comms are or the quicker I need a reply I will spend more time on it. An old boss said ‘you write something the first time for yourself and write it a second time for others’. I even wrote my reply for this twice in a notepad before sending it through.

Good luck!

I recommend doing this course in Coursera: https://www.coursera.org/learn/grammar-punctuation/home/info

It helped me to improve my Grammar and punctuation issues. This is the first course in an Academic writing specialization, so you might consider joining the whole thing. Good luck!

There's some great courses available on websites such as Coursera and EDX. These are university quality courses and are provided free of charge typically, so long as you don't choose to pay for a certification. Here's a few examples of these courses (I haven't tried any of these because I am a native speaker, but the other courses I've completed on these sites have been quite good).

Watching videos, TV, movies can also help you to grasp conversational nuances and learn new words and phrases. Reading news articles and books in English will also be helpful. If you can read even one article a day, it can help you greatly in the long term. Conversing with native speakers online is also a great way to learn the language. Nothing will help you more than speaking out loud and messaging with native speakers. Finally, if you want to learn vocabulary and basic grammar in a game-like manner, you may want to try out Duolingo. Keeping daily streaks going and climbing up the ranks serves as a great motivator, and it helps you to see your progress.

Hopefully some of those suggestions and resources will be useful. Best of luck with learning English!
