Here is tip #4 on how to increase interest, involvement and results when teaching grammar:

Tip #4

Go step by step.

Yes, there are many different grammar topics.

And yes, your student won’t master English until they understand and can use many of them.

But in this case quality is more important than quantity.

Go over each subject until your student truly gets it. Until They can use it easily when readingwriting, or speaking English.

Even after you fully cover a certain rule, go back to it in future lessons, and reinforce your student’s understanding.

“Use It or lose It!” is the motto, so make sure the student continues to USE what they learn.

Finally, I am now going to share with you one final message on this important topic.

It will help you construct your lessons and make them more fun!

You can use sentence diagramming to teach grammar systematically.

It’s basically a visual way to show how all of the parts of a sentence are related. It can also get kind of addictive because diagramming a sentence is like solving a puzzle. :)
