Abstract

In the ESP domain, grammar teaching has always been regarded as a challenging issue, requesting great pedagogical skills, no matter the learners' level and field of expertise. The paper looks at a range of techniques for introducing grammar that focus on meaning, techniques that use tasks meant to maximize interaction and create an opportunity for meaning-focused language use. A more learner-centered approach, inductive teaching offers learners of Business English opportunities to actively create rules, to be more engaged and remember more. We will further explore how blended learning can be used as a helpful tool for guided discovery. In this way, learners discover the form and/or use of the target language with less input on the teacher's part. Moreover, the switch from traditional to blended learning will certainly benefit students and will naturally appeal to their identity as digital natives.
