I'm about to finish my MA in TESOL.

My Applied Linguistics class covered a lot of the nuances of morphology and discussed how to break down the speech patterns of native and non-native English speakers. Grammar was talked about when it came to the pronunciation of past tense -ed and plural -s sounds. Parts of Speech and their relation to other languages was also discussed. The book we used was The Study of Language by George Yule. It's like $17.00 on Amazon, I think I bought the Kindle version.

As for Grammar, we had an entire class dedicated to the subject. We used the book, The Keys to Teaching Grammar by Dr. Folse. The book does a great job of simplifying a lot of the harder grammar topics. I also picked up the student workbook to go along with it. If you're weak in grammar then pickup the workbook, it's really helpful.

Grammar will take awhile to master especially until you learn all the common curveball questions that students will throw at you. I started writing down the most common questions and researching not only the grammar points but also why the students were asking the question. Was it the fault of the material, the teacher, the student (interlingual or intralingual), or a combination of the three?
