Matt Done: Making grammar more real ​

Rules can be an important starting point when it comes to mastering new grammar. However, while some students are good at understanding rules and passing tests, they might struggle to turn what they know into real life communication. This session offers some practical tips on how we can bridge this gap, and make the ‘real life’ value of the grammar we teach clearer and more accessible to our students.​
