Deductive :students learn grammar rule ~> use rule.

Inductive: Use grammar rule ~> Learn rule

Duductive learning of grammar Is an approach to language learning in which learners are taught rules and given specific information about language. They then apply these rules when they use the language.

For example, in the grammar translation method, specific grammar rules are given to learners and practice subsequently follows to familiarise students with the rule.


It is widely used in EFL, contexts where exposure to the target language is limited and the length of instruction time is short ( e.g GTM, adult learners, FL/analytic learners, EFL contexts).

Inductive learning: is an approach to language learning in which learners are not taught grammatical or other types of rules directly but are left to discover or induce rules from their experience of using the language.

Language teaching methods which emphasize use of the language rather than presentation of information about the language include the direct method, the communicative approach and consulting learning.


The features of it are time consuming and applicable to young learners in natural settings such as ESL contexts.

When grammar is taught deductively the teacher explains the rule to the learners.

. Provides NO CONTEXT or COMMUNICATIVE PURPOSE for the grammar.


. Focuses on form first and then meaning.


. Drills students to learn the rule mechanically.


. Assumes all responsibility for student learning.

When grammar is taught inductively the teacher allows the learner to formulate and discover the rule ( to induct)

Provides a CONTEXT and PURPOSE for use.


Focuses on meaning first and form second.


Helps learners discover the rule through meaningful communication.


Empowers the students to problem solve and learn how to learn a language.
