How does "grammar in speaking" differ from traditional grammar teaching?
Grammar in speaking means integrating grammar practice into natural conversations rather than mechanical drills. Instead of filling worksheets, students use English tenses in authentic contexts – describing experiences, discussing habits, narrating stories, and expressing opinions. This approach helps students understand not just how to form tenses, but when and why to use them, building both accuracy and fluency.
What is "present simple in pictures" and why is it effective?
Present simple in pictures uses visual storytelling to present grammar in context. Students describe images, routines, and situations using the target tense, which helps them connect grammar structures to real-life scenarios. This visually attractive approach makes abstract grammar concepts concrete and memorable. The same principle applies to all tenses we teach – using pictures to make grammar practice engaging and effective.
How do conversation cards help reinforce grammar tenses?
Conversation cards provide natural contexts for using English grammar tenses. Students discuss experiences (past simple), describe ongoing actions (present continuous), talk about habits (present simple), narrate interrupted events (past continuous), and share life experiences (present perfect). This approach helps students internalize when and how to use each tense through meaningful practice, making grammar stick.
Can I use these resources in online classes?
Yes! All Lingstar materials, including grammar charts, free conversation cards, and free PDFs grammar speaking drills, are fully digital and perfect for both online and in-person lessons. Share your screen or send students your personalized link to access the assigned speaking activities seamlessly. The visually attractive materials display beautifully in digital format.
