Reinforcing English grammar structures in a2 level learners through the use of the application Johnny Grammar

This research work proposes the use of the application Johnny Grammar as a technological tool to reinforce the different grammatical structures, proposed for A2 level students at the language institute of the Universidad de las Fuerzas Armadas ESPE, sede Latacunga. At the beginning of this research and after observing the students' grammatical skills, it was identified that they were unable to clearly recognize and apply the different grammatical structures. Reading and writing skills were assessed through the Cambridge Key English Test (KET). Subsequently, 16 lesson plans were developed for the eight weeks of study, in which different strategies based on the Presentation, Practice, and Production (PPP) structure were applied to reinforce not only grammar but also vocabulary. Finally, the technological application Johnny Grammar was used to reinforce the topics covered in class, using the Zoom Platform where they were able to work in pairs and small groups. At the end of the study, the post-test (KET) was applied to know the results in the progress of the grammatical knowledge of the subjects of the study. It was found that the use of the Johnny Grammar application contributed significantly to the reinforcement of knowledge in terms of grammatical structures.
