One of the most difficult tasks of teaching grammar, I think, is knowing the grammar rule yourself. Often we use a form of speech just because it sounds right. As a teacher I would definitely need to have resources on hand so that when my students have a question I can look up the explanation and provide them with a reasonable and correct response. I do like the idea of repeating a phrase back to a student or modelling the behaviour rather than calling specific attention and having students repeat the correct phrase to me numerous times.
Using dialogues and conversations is a real-life opportunity for students to have the opportunity to hear and demonstrate their understanding of the grammar rules.
