Grammar teaching of EFL learners in context and through discourse approach

Abstract

"In this article, the author analyses the teaching of grammar to students as a foreign language in the context and with a discursive approach. The author argues that this approach is a very important and necessary part of the process of understanding and perception, since the contextual meaning of a sentence tends to include much more than the literal meaning of the sentence. Therefore, a comprehensive study of this issue will help teachers improve grammar teaching methods in context and through a discursive approach. Moreover, scientists tend to side with the language socialization hypothesis and hold that grammar in a first or second language is acquired through the learner’s repeated and meaningful experience with contextualized discourse, in which grammar is a structural resource that may or may not get explicitly analyzed by the learner as she or he observes and/or engages in meaningful interaction. In this regard, the author has made thorough research on teaching grammar as a foreign language and aims to address practical teaching issues and to help teachers find the possible ways to benefit students.
