Laugh and learn. I like my students to have a good time while they study English. In many countries I've worked in, English is traditionally taught as a series of dry grammar rules. Yes, grammar is important, but its just part of the big picture. I like to focus on teaching my students practical language skills, and on the 4 pillars of language learning: reading, writing, speaking, and listening.
