Abstract

This study investigates the impact of using virtual laboratory and e-tandem learning to promote grammar skills among King Khalid University students studying an intensive English course. The study is based on a quantitative approach and uses pre-test and post-test design in the form of oral tests to collect data. The study found that most KKU students use virtual laboratories, but few communicate with other people worldwide to practice English. It also shows reasonable progress in grammaring skills in form and meaning. However, the use is not performed appropriately due to various cultural and linguistic actors’ studies recommending that grammar be taught as a tool rather than an object. Thus, it should be taught functionally with consideration of use. Moreover, students should be encouraged to use social media to communicate with people worldwide and practice English.
