Teaching Grammar Explicitly And Its Effects On Learners’ Achievement In Learning English As A Foreign Language

Authors : Djafri Leila .

Abstract

The following paper is an attempt to examine the way grammar is taught at the department of English، University of Batna and the benefits students could make from it when explicitly presented to them. We have started by a theoretical part where grammar is presented in relation to the different teaching methods، then we tried to distinguish between explicit and implicit grammar teaching. In the second part of the paper، we tried to carry out a field investigation where we administered questionnaires to both students and teachers to know about their preferences as far as grammar teaching is concerned. The results we obtained by the end revealed the necessity of teaching grammar explicitly in the language classroom for the great help it could have to learners as far as learning the foreign language is concerned.
