    REFLECTION #4

    ELJEAN S. LACLAC

    The concepts and approaches in studying grammar brought me


    back to my main obligation as a teacher which is to impart positive
    learning and positive changes to the lives of my students. The
    reporters have successfully and effectively remind and raise
    awareness to the teachers on their approaches and strategies in
    inculcating language learning to the students.
    They also emphasized how grammar greatly affects the meaning or
    message a speaker wants to convey. Though we can say, especially
    with a non-native English speaker’s perspective that the content is
    much more important that the structure, still in most cases these
    content are being formed and structured by grammar. Hence, the
    effectiveness of the messages also rely on the appropriate structure
    of the statements.
    We were also reminded of the two language teaching approaches;
    Prescriptivists and Descriptivist Approach.
    As a teacher, I adhere to the principle of “Teach students on the
    way they learn, not on the way you teach”, means if a certain
    approach is more suitable or appropriate on these specific learners
    then you have to apply it, unless otherwise.
    The root here is that, in teaching grammar or English language, we,
    teachers also need to know and identify what kind of learners we
    are dealing with to ensure the existence of learning.
