5 step approach
The English Grammar Series at Budding Bean adopts a five-step approach, progressing through Elementary, Intermediate 1, Intermediate 2, Advanced 1, and Advanced 2 stages. Each step is meticulously designed to guide learners through a comprehensive and immersive understanding of English grammar.
The Elementary step serves as the foundation, introducing learners to fundamental grammar concepts. Topics cover basic sentence structure, parts of speech (nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs), and essential grammatical rules. Learners grasp the building blocks necessary for constructing sentences and expressing ideas.
In the Intermediate 1 step, learners advance to more complex grammar concepts. This stage delves deeper into sentence formation, verb tenses, subject-verb agreement, and introduces clauses and phrases. Learners begin constructing more elaborate sentences and understanding the nuances of English grammar.
Building upon the knowledge gained in Intermediate 1, this step explores advanced sentence structures, verb forms, verb tense consistency, and usage of prepositions and conjunctions. The focus is on enhancing sentence variety and clarity, a critical aspect of effective communication.
Advanced 1 takes learners to a higher level of grammar proficiency. Topics include complex sentence types, advanced verb tenses, modals, conditionals, reported speech, and a deeper understanding of grammar rules. Learners develop the skills to convey sophisticated ideas and thoughts accurately.
The final step, Advanced 2, refines learners’ grammar abilities to a near-native level. Complex grammar elements such as passive voice, relative clauses, subjunctive mood, and advanced sentence transformation techniques are covered. Learners attain mastery in utilizing complex grammar structures effectively and appropriately.
