1Peculiarities and role of passive and active grammar material in teaching English

2.2. Available sources to learn foreign language grammar
Using actual contemporary sources where the language is being used 'for real', e.g. movies and books that are popular with actual native speakers of the language. This not only makes it a lot more fun but it results in you learning the 'real' language as it's actually used, not some contrived example in a textbook that a native speaker would never actually say or write.
Make it fun. This is huge. In fact I would say it's the most important factor in determining whether or not you will succeed at learning a language because it goes straight to motivation: making it fun gives you a reason to do it every day and it removes reasons (boredom, difficulty) not to do it.
This fact defies language instructors (and students) around the world. Grammar is a fancy word to describe the rules that govern a language. While this is a simple definition, it’s not completely accurate.
The reality is that grammar is a set of observations academics write down when documenting a language. Those patterns are generated by native speakers of the language – whose minds, like everyone’s minds, rarely follow set patterns.
Many people are unwilling to accept that grammar isn’t necessary at first. They fight against it. Traditional language teachers are probably the worst culprits. Most believe you can’t learn a language without studying grammar first. Reality disagrees.
Education departments across the world all focus on grammar instruction. However, students still fail in learning how to speak languages fluently. In many cases, the very reason so many students struggle to speak languages at the most basic level is that they believe learning grammar is a requirement for speaking a language proficiently. They’re wrong, and they’re studying grammar wrong.
How Learn Grammar Naturally
Grammar study is not how you learned your native language. While native speakers of a language typically converse “according to grammatical rules”, few of them are consciously aware of the rules they’re using. And sometimes, the rules don’t even matter. That’s because there are so many exceptions.
French is an excellent example. With each rule you learn in French, it’s necessary to learn the many exceptions. This means you cannot just think about the rules when you are speaking a new language, because you also have to wonder if there is an exception.
