Teaching grammar interactively

Many people don't like grammar that much because in any language there are  a lot of structures we have to learn to use the language effectively. As a teacher we shouldn't make the class session as a torture for learners to learn those structures and we should be creative to make the lesson meaningful. Today I have seen that the grammar lessons can be enjoyable. We can use videos, movies or cartoons to teach tenses such as Present Progressive, Past Tense, etc. We can teach grammar with games. Students make a circle, for example, and one says verb, another says past tense, the other says past participle. rather than using traditional forms of teaching, we can modify the activities to make it more attractive and more interesting.

  1. You said, "As a teacher we shouldn't make the class session as a torture for learners to learn those structures and we should be creative to make the lesson meaningful." I totally agree. Lessons that torture the students torture the teacher too! :)
