Free OET Grammar Checker

A grammar checker tuned for OET healthcare letters — not a generic English tool. It catches the specific tense, article, preposition, and register errors that cost OET candidates marks in the Language criterion.

How to use the OET Grammar Checker

  1. Step 1

    Paste your letter

    Drop your OET letter (or a paragraph) into the input box.

  2. Step 2

    Run the check

    The checker flags grammar, register, and clinical-phrasing issues with suggestions.

  3. Step 3

    Compare your version

    Each flagged sentence has a corrected version and an explanation.

  4. Step 4

    Practice the pattern

    Note the error type. Most candidates repeat 2–3 patterns — fix those once and your Language score jumps.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from Grammarly? +

Grammarly is tuned for general English. This checker prioritises healthcare clinical phrasing, formal-register usage, and the article/tense patterns most often penalised in OET writing.

Does it score the Language criterion? +

It flags Language-criterion issues but does not assign a band. Use the Writing Checker for a per-criterion estimate.

Will it catch every error? +

No automated tool catches every nuance. Human examiner correction remains the highest-fidelity feedback — see our OET writing correction service.

Is it free? +

Yes, with a daily allowance for anonymous use. Paid plans remove the limit.
