Unfortunately, the majority of students particularly in Indonesia still find difficulties on how to use grammar correctly. Some previous studies found that many students make errors in grammar. To overcome the problem, the students can utilize an online grammar checker. Grammarly is a kind of online grammar checker to help the students identifying the grammar errors.

This research used both open and close-ended questionnaire as an instrument. The subject of this research are students of English Teacher Education Department at UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya who are doing their thesis and have experience using Grammarly.
