Summary:This website, created by an English professor, offers instruction in grammar and writing. When you get to the site you will see a menu of topics with search buttons below them
Description:Click on any search button and you will see a drop-down menu of the topics covered in that category as follows:

Words and Sentences — adjectives, adverbs, nouns, prepositions, pronouns, conjunctions, etc.

Paragraphs — paragraph development, sentence variety, sentence combining, etc.

Essays & Research Papers — principles of composition, outlining, organization, structure, tone, formatting, plagiarism, etc.

Quizzes — over 170 interactive quizzes to test your knowledge of grammar.

Powerpoint Presentations — instructions, suggestions, resources, and demos for powerpoint presentations.

The instruction is delivered through text and illustration, with clear examples of the correct and incorrect forms. Interactive quizzes at the end of each lesson allow the student to self-test their knowledge of the subject matter.

This site is equivalent to having a complete English textbook online. The interactive element of the quizzes will make this rather dry material, much more appealing to students.
