As writing is a crucial skill for academic and professional success, many students struggle with proper usage of verb tenses, which can impact the clarity and effectiveness of their written communication. The current study aims at investigating the effectiveness of using Grammarly application in enhancing grammar tenses proficiency and the ability of this educational technology tool to correct the related errors of second-year EFL students at Mohamed Cherif Messaadia University, in Souk-Ahras. Grammarly is a powerful application that has become a go-to tool for anyone looking to enhance their writing. With its intuitive interface and advanced algorithms, the current piece of research represents a hybrid, experimental research that used a mixed methods to collect both quantitative and qualitative data. Two research methods were used. First, a pre-experiment method was conducted, where one experimental group, consisting of 23 conveniently selected participants, experienced three separate stages: a pre-test, a treatment level, and a post-test at the conclusion of the study. Second, a questionnaire was administered to the same sample. The obtained findings unearthed that students actively using Grammarly application demonstrate a substantial improvement in applying correct grammar tenses and a reduction of tenses errors, and that they have positive attitudes towards the effectiveness of using this software in enhancing their grammar tenses learning and use. Based on these results, the hypotheses are confirmed. To this end, a number of recommendations and suggestions are proposed for further research.
