Abstract

Grammatical competence is very important to tertiary students because this is needed in constructing reports or other important requirements. Grammatical competence is the ability to judge the appropriateness and correctness of a statement with definite reference to grammatical rules. This study aimed to identify the impact of grammar competence to the proficiency of students in listening and speaking. This study used the descriptive correlation research design to establish the relationship of the students’ grammatical competence to their listening and speaking skills. Pearson's correlation coefficient (r) was used to measure the strength of relationship between the two variables- grammatical competence, and listening and speaking skills. Based on the results of the study, grammatical competence has no significant relationship to speaking and listening performance of students. The result shows that students who have low grammatical competence can still achieve average or even high performance in speaking and listening courses. grammatical competence is not a valid indicator of listening and speaking proficiency.
