For the purpose of this study, a pre–test, a number of treatments lessons, a post–test, and an interview were conducted on twenty selected Year 6 learners in Sekolah Kebangsaan Bandar Seri Alam (1). It is discovered that explicit teaching of grammar rules works effectively better on second language learners due to several reasons; lack of confidence, feeling insecure and examination. In addition to that, from the interview conducted with the selected learners, it is established that the learners put more favor in explicit teaching of grammar rules, due to the fact that they need to construct grammatically correct sentences in examination.
