It's like a dictionary but it also gives you the option of checking the meaning of expressions and idioms. Another positive thing is that they provide tons of corpus sentences where you can see the word/expression in context (right-hand side of the website).

Let's face it, English can be confusing. A lot of words are similar but with different meanings, as a result it is almost impossible to avoid making mistakes in English, but if you can get your head around these explanations, you might be able to avoid making these ones or at least recognise them when you see them.

Story tools has a collection of tools to analyze your writing. For example, you can paste your essay here and check "readability" (it analyzes your sentences (long/short), use of passives, articles, verbs, etc) or clichés, word count, etc. It also works well to help you create your own stories (use the "story idea generator" button). Why don't you try using some of these tools before handing in your writing to your teacher? :)
