I believe what especially matters in effective teaching and learning
English grammar is how clearly and easily understandable all grammar
rules are explained and whether adequate supportive exercises with real
life content are practised to master that material. It would take
foreign learners much less time to learn grammar rules that are
explained to learners than to figure out grammar rules on their own
intuitively because grammar rules may have exceptions and other
peculiarities. Grammar books with explanations and exercises have been
published by knowledgeable language specialists to make learning
grammar easier so that learners don't have to discover grammar rules
anew the hard long way.I've received some messages from people
advocating unconventional English learning methods and promoting
English learning products of that kind. I've explored some of their
websites that contain a number of learners' comments. Supporters of
unconventional learning methods and products claim that learning
grammar is unnecessary and inhibits fluent speaking. A growing number
of learners are misled and lose time experiencing delay in language
learning progress because of superficial claims of promoters of
unconventional English learning methods and products. I disagree with
those speculative claims as knowledge of grammar rules logically
reduces making mistakes by learners. Without adequate knowledge of
English grammar rules learners often cannot create their own
grammatically correct sentences and often cannot understand what they
read or hear in English exactly.I believe English communicative
integrated skills courses that practise listening, speaking, reading and
writing alongside pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary are the most
effective and the most comprehensive courses. There is no valid reason
to reject those acclaimed successfully tested courses worldwide as
inferior to untested unconventional English learning products like
Language Bridge or Effortless English. Creators of such products are in
the tiny minority of doubters inventing allegedly easier, quicker and
more effective language learning methods and products, but the evidence
and verified facts are not on their side. Conventional
communicative English teaching and learning that include adequate
regular long-term practice in listening comprehension and speaking
English yield effective results. Lack of such practice in English by
learners produces speculations that conventional English learning and
teaching methods don't work.
