Abstract

Acquiring proficiency in a second language enables learners to interact and communicate effectively in daily situations. Language learners can improve their ability to articulate their thoughts clearly and effectively. Understanding grammar aids learners to use language effectively in written forms. Grammar mechanics is one of the strategies to improve grammar comprehension which could be done through one of the most important instructional procedures, which helps the learners to overcome the challenges during the lessons. The current research aims to investigate the role of teaching intervention in improving grammar comprehension of a group of Kurdish EFL undergraduate learners. A one-group pre-experimental study was conducted to measure participant improvement through pre-test and post-test assessments. The Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) was employed to analyse the collected data. A Paired Sample T-Test was used to assess the level improvement between pre-test and post-test. The findings indicate a significant improvement in grammar comprehension between the pre-test and post-test results following the teaching intervention. The study provides an insight that the educators can improve the grammar comprehension of the learners using targeted materials in the teaching context, especially for the Kurdish EFL learners.
