How To Use Grammarly Tutorial

About this video

A hands-on Grammarly tutorial covering four ways to access the tool and what free versus premium actually changes. On the website, Grammarly doubles as a small cloud drive but strips images, headers, footers and page breaks on export, so formatted manuscripts lose formatting. The desktop app offers the same dashboard without browser distractions. The Chrome extension — his favourite — checks writing across Gmail, social media and most websites, offers double-click definitions and synonyms and dialect selection, though it can conflict with other extensions such as TubeBuddy. The Microsoft Word add-in is, he says, the best option because it preserves formatting and avoids import/export; premium adds document-type-specific editing across academic, business, technical, medical, creative and casual categories, plus the plagiarism checker he calls essential if you hire freelance writers. Caveats he notes: uploads are capped at 4 MB / 60 pages / 100,000 characters on the web version, and Ctrl+Z undo is unavailable while Grammarly is active in Word. He is explicit that Grammarly is not a replacement for a human editor, but that editors appreciate receiving a cleaned-up manuscript, and he advises starting free and upgrading only once it proves useful.

Key takeaways

• Use the Word add-in to keep formatting; the web editor strips it on export
• Free is enough for everyday posts; premium matters for deep manuscript cleanup
• Premium’s plagiarism checker is the key feature if you hire freelancers
• Grammarly assists an editor, it does not replace one
• Try free first, upgrade only when the workflow proves valuable
