Are you about to start a CELTA course or maybe a novice English teacher and struggling to get your head around the nomenclature and systems of the language? I'm here to help.
3. I’m a native English speaker – I know the
language….
..but what is a gerund?
…what’s an auxiliary verb?
….and how many uses are there for the present
perfect tense?
(and what is the present perfect
tense, anyway??!!)
6. My name is Jo Gakonga
I’m an experienced CELTA trainer and I have developed
an on-line grammar course to teach you the parts of
speech, the verb tenses and talk you through some of
the trickier parts of the language.

Grammar for Language Teachers
7. What’s in it?
The course is in twelve parts, each with a video presentation of
30 – 40 minutes, followed by quizzes to consolidate learning and
links to further reading.
8. What do people say about the course?
‘Your sessions focused in on the bits you needed to know. You could spend
hours reading or trying to get that yourself and not really get there.’
'I tried reading some grammar books before the
course, as I knew it was a weak area, and to be
honest, I may as well have been reading
Russian...whereas having the course initially makes the
reading of some of those books much better.’
‘I loved this course! I’m teaching adults now and I honestly don’t
know how I would have survived without it.’
‘The content was practical, interesting (you get extra
points for that given the rather dry subject matter!) and
challenging enough without discouraging.
