In the final project, it is not only important to cite a specific teaching method you select to teach a grammatical phenomenon, but you also have to understand to analyze the teacher roles and the learning activities that align with the principles of that method. The summary above outlines detailed and concise knowledge about some common English teaching methods. Certainly, more methods can also be found in: The Routledge Handbook of English Language Teaching. (2016). United Kingdom: Taylor & Francis.

Teaching demonstration 1: Teaching Grammar for Pre-intermediate students (Secondary school, EFL context)/ Which teaching method was used in this class session?
Teaching demonstration 2: Teaching Grammar following the 3P method (Presentation-Practice-Production). Do you think it is effective for students to use the grammar notion in natural settings with this method? Pay attention to the instructor. Do you think she helped the students to accomplish the grammar learning objectives?
Teaching demonstration 3: Teaching grammar with a communicative approach, inviting students into the conversation using the target grammar point. Do you think this approach is helpful? Does the clip show an explicit or implicit grammar teaching? Do you think Direct Method works better than Grammar Translation Method in grammar learning? What is the English language proficiency level of those students in the clip?
Teaching demonstration 4: In the context of English immersion for English language learners (ELLs) and English as a New Language learners (ENLs) for immigrant kids in the States, English grammar is usually taught through content instruction. The grammar tends to come after a mastery of vocab learning and content immersion. Do you agree with this Natural Approach? Do you think students can benefit from learning grammar this way?
