Зачем нужно заниматься грамматикой
Некоторые люди настолько не любят грамматику, что совсем ее забрасывают, предпочитая другие, более интересные аспекты английского языка. Возможно, вы просто хотите заучить несколько фраз, которые помогут вам путешествовать по миру. Во всех остальных случаях я не советую пренебрегать занятиями грамматикой, и вот почему:
Вас могут просто не понять из-за грамматических ошибок. Не забывайте, что цель занятий состоит в том, чтобы ваша коммуникация на английском языке становилась все более эффективной. Этого не произойдет, если собеседник из-за неряшливой грамматики не сможет понять то, что вы пытаетесь сказать.
Знание грамматических правил помогает выйти на уровень носителя языка, а также более эффективно, быстро и грамотно писать по-английски.
Высокий уровень грамотности – необходимое условие, чтобы учиться в англоязычном университете или работать в компании, где рабочий язык – английский. Профессиональная среда требует профессионального уровня во всем, в том числе – грамотной устной и письменной речи.
