Hi, I have a question for all teachers out there. I recently received my ESL teaching certification, and while I have good teaching skills, I must admit, I am not 100% confident in my ability to TEACH grammar to ESL students. I use excellent grammar myself, but am somewhat lacking in being able to build a solid grammar lesson from the ground up, and answer grammar questions from students (which are usually excellent questions as they really want to understand the grammar inside and out). I can usually make it fairly successfully through a grammar lesson, but I am not confident and sometimes stumped by their questions.

I find a lot of grammar lessons for students on the internet, but what about a "nuts and bolts" grammar book for teachers? Anyone else go through this and have advice?

Thanks, George
