English was not my 1st language. It is not my mother tongue but over the years it became my 1st language as I use it more than my mother tongue language and I am starting to forget my mother tongue language as well.
When talking I do clearly have an accent. However I have been told in some forums that my grammar is not perfect. Which I did not expect that it was but I did not expect it to be so noticeable.
I am unable to detect it and I tried to use online services to find out but I could not.
So I am here to ask some experts to tell me how obvious are my grammar mistakes.
What would be the best way to find out?
What can be done to find out.
I would like to know how obvious are my grammar mistakes and to have them pointed out for me as well.
I studied under British and Canadian system schools and graduated Higschool in the USA.
I tried to post this 2 days ago but it did not get posted yet. I will try to get the username fixed and add another n.
I want to check if I have many grammar mistakes.

When talking I clearly have an accent. Moreover I have been told in some forums that my grammar is not perfect. Not that I imagined it was perfect, but nor did I expect its imperfections to be so noticeable.
I am unable to detect my errors and I have tried - unsuccessfully - to use online services to find them.
