Аннотация:
This study explores effective strategies for teaching grammar in context, emphasizing the integration of grammatical forms within meaningful communication. Traditional grammar instruction often isolates rules, which may hinder learners’ ability to use language naturally. In contrast, contextualized grammar teaching enhances both accuracy and communicative competence. The study reviews literature on communicative language teaching, task-based learning, and guided discovery, highlighting the benefits of authentic materials, technology integration, and collaborative activities. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research examines the impact of contextualized grammar instruction on intermediate-level English learners, analyzing pre- and post-test results, classroom observations, and student interviews. Findings suggest that teaching grammar in context increases learner engagement, fluency, and retention while fostering confidence in real-life communication. The study underscores the importance of balancing form-focused instruction with communicative practice for effective language learning.
