Grammar is the formation of any sentence, quote or paper. When I write I will re-read each section of my paper to make sure that it flows smoothly and that I have not missed a coma.

This is what I grew up doing and while I am typing an assignment my finger automatically hits the enter button twice. Furthermore, I need to use more of an active voice and not a passive voice when I write. There is a website that I use that helps me with my grammar on my assignments, just in case you need extra help:
