Grammar is a foundational procedure throughout English teaching, which enables helps students to further know about the structure of language formation and the ideographic function of language and promotes the cultivation of students' comprehensive language ability. After reviewing previous literature, the main findings of this paper were: 1) the introduction of the inductive method, 2) prosses, 3) practice. Grammar plays the main role in English teaching, including reading, listening, speaking, and writing. However, during practical English teaching, especially in the secondary school period, Chinese students suffer from all four parts because of grammar problems. Therefore, the inductive method plays an important role in grammar teaching because it can help students understand easily confusing words, phrases, and grammatical structures.
