I use Grammarly. Since I use English as a second language, my English language is average level so I need to use language improvement tool like Grammarly to polish my language. Ialso sometimes use AI tool EditGPT to polish my language.

thank you for the advice, because my English is not very good, with your suggestion to use Grammarly, maybe my English language can be better

I totally agree—Grammarly is a fantastic tool for ensuring your writing is polished and professional. It’s been a huge help for me as well, especially when it comes to catching those sneaky grammar and punctuation errors. Beyond just fixing mistakes, I also appreciate how it suggests ways to improve clarity and style, making my writing stronger overall. It’s like having an extra set of eyes to review your work before you hit 'submit.' Definitely a must-have for any writer.

As a writer, I have always used Grammarly to help me with my writing as there are always times when you may need that piece of mind to be sure your writing makes sense and is professionally looking when it comes to grammar.

If you are a writer, have you used any tools? What tools have you used and how have they helped in your writing?

Using tools to write.! I don’t think thats a good idea. I am talking about chatgpt etc. Its make your writing robotic.

Using Chatgpt to write is lame and a proof that one is not creative. If you are creative, you should aim to make use of other ways to improve your writing skills.
