Test or Check Your Grammar Online

Test or Check Your Grammar Online
Are you always asking whether your Grammar http://www.grammarcheck.net/ is correct or not. Please check this online GrammarCheck out. According to the website, "the grammar check tool can come in handy for anyone. Like many, you probably learned many of the grammar rules all throughout your school years. Also, like many, you've likely forgotten much of what you learned. Where does the comma go, for instance? Is ending your sentences with a proposition really that bad a practice? Are there hard and fast rules for when to use who, that or which? All of these questions, as well as many more, can plague both amateur and professional writers. Doing a grammar and spell check, all online, helps to settle these questions and give you more confidence in your writing."

According to Mrs. Ifeoma Esiri, Co-Chair and member of ZODML’s Board of Trustees, six primary schools and four secondary schools within Ikoyi, Lagos State have been equipped with books, computers and other facilities free of charge. Mrs. Esiri noted at the launch of the online library, that the project was central to the achievement of ZODML’s mission.


ZODML, a non-for-profit organisation, was set up in memory of Z.O Dibiaezue  to provide students and general readers access to resources offline and online for education purposes.


Other dignatories present at the launch include Mrs. Ayo Obe, a civil rights crusader and ZODML trustee. 


The online library coul dbe accessed via http://www.zodml.org/ and it is available 24/7 to all Nigerians free of charge. On the website is a catalogue of past question papers for high school students and a variety of writings by Nigerian authors.
