In deductive grammar teaching, learners are given rules and statements about grammar up front and asked to apply them.
In inductive grammar teaching, learners are not given the rules up front, but rather learn from trying different things, seeing what works and what does not. Through experimenting they figure out the grammatical rules on their own.
Inductive grammar teaching involves presenting examples to students first, allowing them to identify patterns and rules themselves. Deductive grammar teaching starts with explaining the rules to students first and then providing examples. Inductive teaching can help develop critical thinking skills and encourages student participation, while deductive teaching provides clear guidance and structure from the start.
Deductive grammar teaching involves presenting grammar rules first before practice, while inductive grammar teaching involves providing examples for students to analyze and discover the rules themselves. Deductive teaching is more teacher-centered and emphasizes explicit instruction, whereas inductive teaching is more student-centered and focuses on promoting learner autonomy and discovery of language patterns.
Both of these methods date back to the 17th century, and are used to teach foreign languages to students. The grammar translation method was used to teach languages such as Greek and Latin, but did not teach communication skills. The direct method focuses on teaching communication skills along with the language.
Explicit grammar refers to rules and principles that are consciously taught and learned, while implicit grammar refers to the ability to unconsciously apply the rules of grammar in language use. Explicit grammar instruction involves direct teaching of grammar rules and structures, while implicit grammar acquisition occurs through exposure to language and practice.
Teaching grammar is important as it helps individuals communicate effectively, understand the structure of language, and improve writing skills. Knowing grammar rules can also enhance clarity and precision in written and spoken communication. It provides a foundation for mastering language skills and fosters better comprehension and expression.
A text-based approach to language teaching focuses on using written material as the main source of instruction. This approach involves analyzing and interpreting texts to develop vocabulary, grammar, and comprehension skills. It encourages students to engage with authentic texts to improve their language proficiency.
Inductive reasoning involves making general conclusions based on specific observations or evidence. Deductive reasoning starts with a general principle or hypothesis and applies it to specific cases to reach a conclusion. Inductive reasoning moves from specific to general, while deductive reasoning moves from general to specific.
Yes, teaching grammar in a formal manner can be valuable in helping students understand the structure and rules of language. However, it is important to balance formal grammar instruction with opportunities for students to apply their knowledge in authentic contexts to promote meaningful learning.

Systemic-Functional Grammar focuses on how language is used to convey meaning in different contexts, while Transformational-Generative Grammar focuses on the underlying structure of language and how sentences are generated. Systemic-Functional Grammar emphasizes the social function of language, whereas Transformational-Generative Grammar is more concerned with the universal rules that govern language.

The Grammar Translation Method may be used for teaching foreign languages. It involves stressing the grammar of the foreign language and teaching learners to translate from their mother tongue into the foreign language and vice versa. It is by far the most effective method of foreign language teaching is the aim is a high level of precision and accuracy in the foreign language.

I've never heard of an English grammar license. Teachers are required to have teaching certificates but I've never heard of such a specific narrow field as English grammar.
