I just saw a posting on the Linguist list about a grammar page. The page
is intended primarily for people who will be ESL teachers, but it raised a
lot of points that native-speaker teachers are concerned about. Also, it
has an interesting list of desired skills for Future Grammar Teachers
(FTGs) of which many hold true of native-speaker grammar teachers as well
as ESL teachers. Check the page out, let's see what y'all think!
