Grammar Issues in Academic Paper

Students from university usually do lots of writing which can be notes, critical thinking, essay, lab report, or even thesis and dissertation. Usually grammar is a big issue for students who come from country which their first language is not English.

3. Singular/plural agreement
4. Word form
5. Unclear pronouns
6. Articles
7. Prepositions

9. Omitted commas
10. Apostrophes
