English teachers often struggle with how to teach a grammar point. In this three-part video series, Chris Westergaard from The Language House TEFL in Prague breaks down all of the techniques and correct methods to teach English grammar productively.
Watch video #2 • Teach Any English Gram...
This first video deals with the misconceptions that many English teachers have when they teach English grammar and some great tips on how to prepare for a grammar lesson.
Teaching grammar is all about usage and less about learning all of the rules of a grammar point. Yes, the rules are important, but the end goal of any grammar lesson should be aimed at students being able to use the grammar point in real-life discussions, roleplays, and authentic conversations.
Here are the specific tips covered in the video
.
1. Know your grammar point
2. Pull out 1-2 functions
3. Plan your activation
4. Decide on rules/content
5. Think of the language level of your students
6. Investigate materials
7. Have an overreaching topic (your topic is not your grammar point)
.
After watching this first video, check out video #2 on how to present grammar effectively.

Hello, I am studying teaching English as a Foreign language. I am from Nicaragua, and here we are familiarized with the terms PPP (Presentation, Practice and Production). In the same way, the lesson needs to have a Pre, While and After activity. Thank you for sharing your strategies because they are very useful since there are teachers who struggle with this topic which teaching grammar.

this is very helpful. I teach as a volunteer and need more instruction like this. It is hard to shift to using a less "lecturing" approach without instruction such as this video.

I am sooooo happy I found This Teacher Chris :) and the amazing video by him on teaching Grammar. As a new ESL teacher teaching first time with my own lesson material independently , I am and was struggling with the best way to teach grammar and was doing it wrong!! I think Chris has nailed it so well when he says " its about usage", so dont teach all grammar points, pick one or two and really think about activation stage in advance, plus never make it the topic itself as it is boring and what I was doing ! so excited to see the rest of the videos ! Fan from first video. Thank you for making this video, no grammar books or tefl course teaches this ( atleast mine didn't).!

@TheLanguageHouseTEFL 2 года назад

Also happy to hear that. I’m trying to make my videos better and better, so it’s nice to hear that you like them.

@teachingwithdmitriyfedorov2770 2 года назад

What are course books like English File for? I mean, all the material you have to present is laid out clearly well there. Just spend some time getting yourself ready for a lesson.

@oldworldmeetsnewworldwitha4749 2 года назад

Interesting video: Is it more for EFL or ESL? Teachers with degrees or without? Why not begin with topic first? Let the topic input (reading and listening) and student input determine the grammar structures (it will never be one structure) to be taught. Our field has been moving towards theme-based instruction and integrated skills for many years, so why determine grammatical structures first? Thanks

@larazonporlaque923 Год назад

I don't consider the tradiional grammar teavhing is wrong because it worked for me for example, but there are other styles that could complement this traditional view very much! I recently realized it's hard for me to teach grammar, because there's a thin line between not giving enough information and giving over information, but this hleped a lot. Tyvm

@AhmedHassan-hb8pt 2 года назад

Right on time Chris, can't wait for more you're awesome as always !

@NoirHammer Месяц назад

You know Chris, I was supposed to get my masters in English over ten years ago. I didn't follow through though. In hindsight, I feel okay about it because it would've taken me three years to complete and a lot of pocket money only to find that anyone can take an online course to get a certificate in a matter of days or weeks and will be accepted in most foreign school for the same rate of pay I would've gotten, though my education would've been superior. I did end up getting one of those certificates and it took two days if I remember correctly. Three years vs two days. Smh.
