There are lots of places to go. Google "grammar" and you'll come up with tons of links to books and websites. Grammar is tough if it's not something you're good at and it doesn't come naturally. You'll just have to study, and most especially, read. A lot.

Ask someone who talked about grammar errors to specify one.

You can always reply to a review and ask for examples or clarification. Did anyone do a Line-By-Line for you?

There's a site called OWL, and it's very reliable information. You can find everything there for grammar and format.
