How To Use Stories To Know Grammar Rules

10/9/2017

 
This is from my free monthly email. Join here: http://www.learn-englishonline.net/newsletter.html

In this month's newsletter, I would like to talk about everyone's favourite topic: grammar! OK, I know. I know -  nobody likes learning grammar – myself included - but it is necessary if you want to take your English to the next level!

A common problem for students is the fact that they find it difficult to implement grammar rules in real life situations. When they read the rules and the examples in the book, they understand them without any problems but then struggle to apply the rule in a real life situation.   

This strategy aims to show you how to make grammar easier to embed into your mind so you can use it in real life situations. With some practise, it will become automatic to you.   

Here it goes: Use stories to embed the grammar rules and patterns. Why stories you ask? Because humans remember stories. Think about how many stories you already know in your head! See, what I mean? Now, back to reality.  

Here’s how you can apply it to learning grammar: Let’s say you are learning the present perfect.

You can make a story to remember the situations in which we use the present prefect. For example, you are having a conversation with your best friend about traveling. You ask him, “Have you visited Brazil (imagine your favourite country is Brazil)?” He replies, “No, I have not but my sister has many times.”  
 
Just from these two sentences, you already have seen one situation when to use the present perfect, how to use it for questions and short replies, the negative and positive and some of its conjugations.

I admit that the story is not very memorable though! It is only to show you an example.   

The only limitation is your imagination! 

What do you think of that? Do you think you'll try this method in the future?
