Английская грамматика по уровням

Как выглядит английская грамматика по уровням?

В этом посте подробно обсудим, какую грамматику проходят на разных уровнях изучения английского - от начального до продвинутого. Увидим примеры этой грамматики и проведем небольшой тест.

На всякий случай напомню, что грамматика - это всего лишь один аспект изучения языка. Нужный, полезный, да. Но далеко не единственный. 

А как было бы хорошо - выучил грамматику и, считай, освоил английский))

Английская грамматика по уровням

Вы увидите, что частенько на разных уровнях повторяется одна и та же грамматика. Подробнее о том, почему так происходит, в этом посте. Вкратце же:

• не все грамматические конструкции усваиваются с первого раза (повторение - мать учения)))
• на низких уровнях явления рассматриваются отдельно друг от друга, а на более высоких уровнях - сравниваются между собой
• по мере улучшения уровня английского выясняется, что у каждой грамматической конструкции есть нюансы и тонкости, о которых коварные преподаватели до поры до времени молчат, чтобы не создавать путаницу

И подробнее о том, зачем вообще нужно деление по уровням.

Английская грамматика по уровням - в разных учебниках - выглядит примерно одинаково. Поэтому за основу возьму один из самых популярных учебников - English File.

Кстати, эта английская грамматика по уровням может быть своего рода тестом. Загляните в любой раздел и посмотрите - понимаете ли вы предложения с примерами грамматики? Но - что еще важнее - используете ли вы такие конструкции в речи? Если нет, возможно, это пока не ваш уровень. Если да, перейдите в следующий уровень и проделайте то же самое.

Английская грамматика по уровням - короткий путь в нужный раздел:

• Beginner 
• Elementary 
• Pre-intermediate 
• Intermediate 
• Upper-Intermediate 
• Advanced

Грамматика уровня Beginner / Starter

На уровне Beginner проходят основы основ - самые простые конструкции. Одновременно - и самые важные, потому что на них будет основана вся сложная грамматика более высоких уровней. 

На этом уровне много внимания уделяется формам - опять-таки, чтобы достичь определенного автоматизма в простых вещах, вроде I am, you are, he is. Грамматические конструкции на уровне Beginner в основном рассматриваются отдельно друг от друга, чтобы избежать путаницы сравнений и нюансов.

Вот и вся английская грамматика по уровням.

Неужели после уровня Advanced английская грамматика заканчивается? Нет, конечно)) Если смотреть на уровни, есть еще уровень Proficiency, но линейки разговорных курсов действительно заканчиваются на уровне Advanced.

Возможно это потому, что: 

• даже амбициозному пользователю английского языка редко когда нужен уровень выше Advanced (не говоря уж про среднестатистических изучающих, которые останавливаются в районе Intermediate)
• на высоких уровнях люди уже умеют находить нужные аутентичные материалы самостоятельно и самостоятельно же организовывать свое обучение
• на высоких уровнях многие задумываются о более практическом и прицельном использовании английского - например, подготовка к международным экзаменам (IELTS, TOEFL и другие) или специализированные курсы по профессии

А тонкостей даже после уровня Advanced еще много остается!
