Grammar In Context
Teaching Grammar In Isolation
Teaching of grammar in isolation involves
learning grammar which is presented out of
context.

learners are given isolated sentences, which
they are expected to internalize through
exercises involving repetition, manipulation,
and grammatical transformation.
These exercises are designed to provide
learners with formal, declarative mastery of
the language in which they are able to explain
rules of using the form of the language.

context of the situation the utterances are

It will make it easy for students to see how
and why alternative forms exist to express
different communicative meanings.
