Abstract
Grammar is a framework and the absolutely necessary building blocks of language. For a long time, there have been widely differing opinions in the field of education about the status of English grammar in English teaching. Whether grammar teaching is necessary or not is a controversial issue. This thesis finds that grammar teaching takes an important place by reviewing a variety of language teaching methods. “Great Grammar Debate” makes the status of grammar reestablished in English teaching in the United Kingdom, the United States, Australia and other countries. The survey we conducted on Chinese middle school students indicates that Chinese students have a strong belief in the important role of English grammar. Grammar teaching has been the substantial part of English teaching in middle schools for a long time.
