Teaching the rules of grammar can be extremely challenging if you don’t have the proper training. Since native English  speakers learn grammar incidentally, many ESL teachers find it easy to make corrections but difficult to explain the rules behind them. The Teaching English Grammar Specialization Module provides you with a thorough understanding of different aspects of grammar and enables you to learn the techniques to teach this subject effectively in an ESL classroom. In this self-study course, you will find concepts set in an interesting and humorous tone to provide you and your students with a better learning experience.
