Grammar Practice — All Quizzes by Type
Every practice page on ESLDesk carries a toolbar of interactive quizzes. This directory lists them by quiz type, so you can pick how you want to practice — unscramble sentences, hunt for words, match pairs, or type from memory.

🎲 Matching and ⌨️ Spelling
The other two quiz types are available on nearly every practice page on the site — over 150 pages each — so they are not listed one by one. Matching pairs each sentence with its grammar label, meaning, or match; Spelling shows a sentence, then asks you to type it from memory (with a listen-only mode for dictation practice). Find them in the ⚙️ Quizzes menu on any page in:
A few pages are matching-only judgment quizzes — you decide whether each sentence is correct or incorrect: Gerund vs infinitive · Subject–verb agreement · Comma splices & run-ons.
