WHAT GRAMMAR TOPICS DO YOU FEEL YOU SHOULD STUDY AND PRACTICE MORE?

In my opinion you should investigate:
- Tenses
- The use of the "S" in English
- The difference between "They, Their, They're"
- The translation of the simple and imperfect Present
- Auxiliary "Do, Does, Did"
- Prepositions with question
- The English translation of "how"
- The construction of the verb "To want"

Here are 5 tips on how to make grammar learning easier and more effective:
1. Make a connection with other languages, preferably your native: notice the similarities with your native language grammar or other languages you are familiar with.
2. Read lots of books and watch many films in your target language; make sure the films are undubbed, with high-quality subtitles.
3. Do grammar exercises.
4. Learn the irregular verbs: all languages have them and some of those verbs are very important (e.g. be, have) for the language structure and its grammar.
5. If you find it boring, skip it

And it is a beautiful highway indeed. The same dedicated memory strategies you use to memorize grammar rules can be used to memorize vocabulary. To consider ways to make their English learning a little bit more like they learned their first language: play with it, have fun, and don’t worry so much about making mistakes and having perfect grammar.

The grammar has limited use without vocabulary. You simply can’t get traction with grammar until you have a large enough pool of words that you understand upon sight. Think of grammar as the engine that requires the fuel of vocabulary in order to run the car of your mind and the headlights of your mouth so that you can drive the highway of language.

The grammar is important, but it’s not the most important part of the language. Grammar is like the glue that holds the words of an utterance together. It’s essential to learn it well. But learning grammar does not consist mainly of memorizing lists of verb conjugations or noun declensions; rather, you want to get to the point (from hearing and saying a grammatical structure many, many times) that saying something a certain way “sounds right” and saying it some other way “sounds wrong.”

The grammar is a set of rules that explains how to use a language. Grammar has many complicated concepts like: prepositions, tenses, conditionals, third person, subjunctive, passive form… and rules which try to tell us how to use the language. Do not base your language learning on mastering grammar, especially if you want to speak fluently.  Instead, spend most of the time reading and listening.  You will naturally pick up the grammar structures by seeing them over and over again in their natural context. Grammar can be useful when you begin learning a new language totally from scratch; it’s good to take a look at a very basic grammar book to see what the language is like.
It is also useful when you have a very good level in speaking and writing, and then you want to refine your skills and avoid minor mistakes, but you definitely won’t be fluent only because you know many grammar rules. The role of grammar varies on different proficiency levels and probably also between different languages.
Beginners don’t really need to focus on grammar explicitly and will learn the basics from studying simple sentences in the target language.  This should give them a grasp of word order and word formation more or less intuitively if the sentences are carefully selected.
This is quite enough, it’s fine to learn large chunks of the language without actually understanding exactly why these chunks are constructed the way they are. It gives you something immediately useful and makes language learning more meaningful.
Once the student has learned basic phrases and words, it becomes a lot more important to understand the structure of the chunks, because without grammatical knowledge, it’s impossible to construct new sentences. Up to a point, it might be fine to simply reproduce what you have heard other people say and substitute a few words here and there to get your meaning across, but since words tend to influence each other quite a lot, this method has its limitations.
At an advanced level, implicit learning of grammar through extensive reading in listening works best, especially when combined with limited explicit instruction or learning.
In other words, this means that inductive learning is great, but it works best with some deductive help.
It means that learning from exposure to the target language is great, but that it works best when combined with some explicit knowledge of the grammar you’re trying to learn. This helps you notice and focus on the key aspects and stops you being distracted by things that seem relevant but in fact are not.
To summarize, learning grammar is important, but it needn’t and shouldn’t be a chore.
It shouldn’t be a set of formulate to be memorized for your next exam. Instead, it should be used as a key to unlock and understand the language.
Limiting the role of rote learning of rules is the first step towards making grammar fun.
