Teaching English Grammar Differently

Abstract

The teaching of grammar is not a new venture. It has been taught for decades in schools and colleges. Many students learn grammar in order to get degrees and their teachers do not wish to go beyond examinations.  Neither teachers nor students think that grammar is sine qua non to communicate fluently and confidently in everyday life. The present paper focuses on the teaching of grammar for real-life communication. It aims to show that grammar can be taught differently for day-to-day use.
