Teaching Grammar: in isolation or in context?

The article discusses the importance of grammar in language learning and presents two approaches to teaching grammar: teaching in isolation and teaching in context. Teaching grammar in isolation focuses solely on form and meaning, using drills and tests to reinforce comprehension. This approach helps learners acquire the necessary grammar principles and can improve their writing skills. However, it may not provide students with the ability to apply grammar rules effectively in real-world contexts. Some scholars argue that grammar should be taught in conjunction with subject matter and in the context of language usage, such as through texts, to enhance understanding and application.
