Abstract

The acquisition of grammatical competence is a fundamental, yet often challenging, component of foreign language learning, particularly for students whose primary academic focus lies outside of linguistic or philological studies. This article explores the imperative and methodologies for effectively cultivating English grammatical proficiency among students enrolled in non-philological disciplines, such as engineering, business, medicine, and computer science. Unlike their counterparts in language-focused programs, these students often perceive English as a subsidiary tool—a lingua franca for accessing specialized technical literature, engaging in professional communication, or navigating globalized career landscapes, rather than an object of deep theoretical study.
