Activity #2 : Learning Insights

Grammar plays an important role in any language and the learner

should be aware of it to be able to use this language efficiently. Grammar
describes how a language goes or works. Also, learning grammar affects the
students’ communicative competence. So the teaching of English, or any
other language, is a matter of specialization and the teaching of grammar is of
paramount importance.

When a teacher teach grammar, he or she give the learners the

ability to express themselves accurately, while also fulfilling their expectations
of what it means to learn another language. This basic plan will help teachers
deliver such lessons effectively. So, as English teachers, they must have
knowledge, experience and skill on the method, and technique in English
language teaching. By having these, they can use the appropriate method
and technique in teaching, and the objectives designed before teaching and
learning takes place can be achieved.

So my learning in this topic is knowing that in teaching especially

in ESL classroom, grammar plays a vital role in how effectively a teacher
conveys his or her lessons. Knowing the highs and lows of the language could
make or break a lesson. In one instance, a teacher could adjust the level of
difficulty of words to be used if he is familiar with grammar. This could lead to
a more enjoyable experience for both teachers and students. One more thing,
being able to express yourself confidently as a teacher with the right grammar
commands respect and positive outlook from your students. Mastering proper
grammar could inspire your students to also strive harder in learning the
language.
