Abstract

This paper explores the integration of autonomous learning ability cultivation in English grammar teaching. It examines the current state of grammar instruction, challenges faced by learners, and the importance of fostering self-directed learning skills. The study investigates effective strategies for promoting autonomy, including learner-centered approaches, technology integration, and self-assessment techniques. Through a mixed-methods research design, the paper analyzes the impact of autonomous learning on grammar proficiency and identifies key factors influencing its development. The findings suggest that incorporating autonomous learning strategies in grammar teaching significantly enhances students' language skills and self-regulation abilities. The paper concludes with recommendations for educators and implications for future research in this field.
