MODERN APPROACHES TO TEACHING GRAMMAR

Abstract

This article explores modern approaches to teaching grammar in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classroom. It highlights the shift from traditional rule-based methods to communicative, task-based, and technology-enhanced strategies. The paper reviews recent studies, categorizes current methods, and analyzes their effectiveness in fostering both accuracy and fluency. Findings suggest that an eclectic approach combining communicative tasks, inductive-deductive techniques, and digital tools enhances learner motivation, reduces grammar anxiety, and improves long-term retention. The study concludes that adopting innovative methods can make grammar instruction more learner-centered and effective in diverse educational contexts.
