ALL ABOUT GRAMMAR

HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR GRAMMAR:


Speak in English, assuming English is the language whose grammar you wish to improve upon. English is a universal language, and its importance is increasing in our daily lives. Learning grammar can be hard if we don’t really know how to speak English. Improve your grammar by continual practice. Your speech will reflect patterns you hear, and the rest will fall into place. Find a friend who can speak to you in English, and move on. Whenever you feel stuck, ask for help!


Make a plan. Try to get an overview of English grammar from a text book or online resource. Note the grammar points you need to work on and plan to work on each for at least a few days


Find a tutor. Some of us may disagree with the idea of going to a teacher for grammar lessons, but why not? If you are looking for an alternative, practice grammar using online exercises. There are a number of sites that offer exercises on a range of topics. While using a computer to type a document, grammar checkers can be very helpful too.


Identify common mistakes. People who speak the same language often make the same mistakes in English grammar. For example, many Russian speakers have trouble using “a” and “the” in English. Find out what grammar points are often difficult for speakers of your native language. Pay extra attention to learning those grammar points


Translate from your native language into English. When you write or speak your own thoughts, it’s easy to avoid complicated grammar. When you translate, you have to work with whatever is on the page, even if the grammar is difficult. Start translating simple things like advertisements and then move to newspapers and magazine articles. Translating dialog in plays is another good way to practice.
