LearnEnglish Grammar

LearnEnglish Grammar is a mobile app for practicing English grammar, with material for learners from beginner through advanced levels. It offers four stages: Beginner (CEFR A1), Elementary, Intermediate, and Advanced (CEFR C2). Each level has over 600 activities across about 25 grammar topics. Exercises use fill-in-the-blanks, multiple choice, and matching. Learners can work at their own pace or take tests on grammar topics at their level. The app is available on Android and iOS and offers English, Japanese, Spanish, and traditional and simplified Chinese. It has a free plan, but includes ads. The App Store listing offers a one-time in-app purchase for $1.99 to remove third-party ads. The British Council says the app does not explain grammar rules in detail, so it is for practice rather than a detailed grammar reference. Google Play says the app may share device or other IDs and may collect location, app activity, and performance information. Data is encrypted in transit, and users can request deletion.

LearnEnglish Grammar offers structured practice across four levels and multiple question formats. It is not a detailed grammar reference, and its free app includes ads.

The app suits English learners who want grammar practice at beginner, elementary, intermediate, or advanced level. It is less suited to learners seeking detailed explanations of grammar rules.

LearnEnglish Grammar is a focused mobile practice app for English learners from beginner to advanced level. It suits independent students who want repeated grammar exercises on a phone, especially when they already know roughly where to start. The trade-off is a narrow remit: it drills accuracy rather than teaching grammar in depth or developing speaking.

Overview

The app divides study into Beginner (CEFR A1), Elementary, Intermediate and Advanced (CEFR C2). You can work at your own pace or take tests on grammar topics within your level. That makes it a practical choice for regular revision and targeted practice, provided you can place yourself without an assessment.

This is practice material, not a reference guide. The British Council says it does not explain grammar rules in detail, so learners who need a clear explanation of why an answer is correct will need another resource alongside it. There is no speech practice and no placement test, which keeps the app useful for written grammar but unsuitable as a complete language course.

Key features

Each level contains more than 600 activities spanning about 25 grammar topics. That is enough material for sustained repetition and lets you concentrate on a particular topic rather than follow only a fixed lesson path. It is particularly useful for learners preparing to reinforce familiar rules or close recurring accuracy gaps.

Exercises use fill-in-the-blanks, multiple choice and matching. The formats add modest variety while keeping the work centered on grammar recognition and production. Topic tests provide a more deliberate check than casual practice, but the app does not extend that work into conversation, pronunciation or broader skills.

The interface is available in English, Japanese, Spanish, traditional Chinese and simplified Chinese. The app contains advertising; a one-time purchase removes third-party ads. Google Play says it may share device or other IDs and may collect location, app activity and performance information. Data is encrypted in transit, and users can request deletion. Support is provided at [email protected].

Pricing

The free plan gives access to the core practice without a trial deadline, making it the sensible starting point for anyone willing to tolerate ads. The $1.99 purchase is a small, permanent upgrade for frequent users who want uninterrupted sessions; it adds no new grammar content. There is no paid subscription, renewal or published quota to weigh, but the free experience remains ad-supported.

Platforms

LearnEnglish Grammar has Android and iOS mobile apps. The British Council also links to UK and US editions for both platforms and a Windows Phone 8 edition. It is therefore best suited to phone-based study rather than desktop learning.

Who it's for

Choose it if you are a beginner through advanced learner seeking a large bank of level-organised English grammar questions, or if you want short, repeatable revision sessions on specific topics. It also suits learners who prefer self-paced work and do not need extensive lesson explanations.

Look elsewhere if you need a diagnostic test to choose a level, speaking or pronunciation practice, or a full explanation-led grammar course. Learners who rely on understanding the rule before drilling it may find the app too thin on instruction.

Pros and cons

Pros

• Four CEFR-spanning levels make the content relevant from A1 beginners through C2 advanced learners.
• More than 600 activities per level across about 25 topics support substantial, focused repetition.
• Self-paced practice and topic tests serve both casual revision and more deliberate checking.
• The free plan keeps the full practice app accessible, with a low-cost one-time ad-removal option.
• Five interface-language options can make navigation more approachable for multilingual learners.

Cons

• No placement test means you must decide your starting level yourself.
• No speech practice limits it to grammar accuracy rather than communicative language development.
• Detailed rule explanations are outside its scope, so mistakes may require another teaching resource.
• Ads interrupt the free experience unless you pay the separate removal fee.
• Google Play reports potential collection and sharing of device, location and usage-related data.

Alternatives

Duolingo is the better pick for a broader, gamified language-learning route across Android, iOS, macOS and the web, with a free plan and a one-week free trial.

Talkpal is the alternative for AI-based practice, with its free Basic plan limited to 10 minutes daily.

ELSA Speak is the more relevant choice when pronunciation is the priority; its free plan includes the first two lessons of topics.

Verdict

LearnEnglish Grammar is a strong fit for independent learners who want a free, sizeable supply of level-based English grammar drills and topic tests. Its focused structure and optional $1.99 ad removal are the main reasons to choose it. Look elsewhere if you need grammar explanations, a level assessment, speaking practice or a complete language-learning programme.
