Ask HN: Natural language processing to identify grammar in a text?

Apologies for the clunky question. We have a growing base of adult English students. Our teaching methodology is content-first, basically we find any material of interest to our students, based on their interests, sector and language goals and build lesson plans and discussions around that 'centerpiece'. A lot of the work is curation and creating reusable discussion questions.

I have been searching for a tool that can scan a paragraph and extract the grammar tenses and features (past simple, present continuous, passive voice, indirect question) as it's a recurring question with our students. We have tools to tell us the approximate level, suggested vocabulary and word count, but does this even exist (yet?). Thank you in advance.
