The study highlights the problems in teaching English grammar to the secondary
school learners. The objectives of the study are to identify the various problems of
teaching English grammar to secondary school students; to explore the ways and
means for the improvement of the teaching of English grammar to secondary school
students; to sort out the solutions for the problems that hinder in teaching English
grammar to secondary school students. The researchers used the quantitative research
method for the study and the study was descriptive in nature. All the secondary school
English teachers in public schools are the population of the study in district Vehari. For
the selection of sample, the researcher used the simple random sampling technique.
The researchers adopt a standard questionnaire (Alam, 2005) and set the 9 sub-scale
items for the research tool. For primary data collection, the researchers visited the
sample personally and administered the questionnaire to the sample of the study as
score and standard deviation used for getting the results. Findings of the study
concluded that teachers who teach English to the secondary school students are not
fully satisfied with their teaching of English grammar that's because they have no
specialization in English language. On the other way, teachers are not trained to teach
English grammar at secondary level. The study also revealed that from the use of audio
lingual method English teachers can get better results. The teachers have perception
that English grammar is not easy to teach. It may also be recommended that teachers
have special trainings to motivate the secondary school students toward learning
English grammar as well as English language. The study may recommend the teachers
have motivation to prepare the grammar lesson before teaching to the secondary school
students.
