Episode Summary
Teaching grammar can be a topic that raises many questions for teachers of English learners, but it doesn’t have to be. And as we discussed last week about how to teach grammar to younger English learners, we talked about strategies that work with that age group and answered questions about why we need to teach grammar in general. Today, I wanted to share how you can incorporate effective and meaningful ways to teach grammar to EL teens and adults.
