Summary: This paper reports on a student’s threshold-concept-related dissertation, based upon previous studies on troublesome grammar knowledge by Orsini-Jones and Jones (2007), Orsini-Jones and Sinclair (2008) and Orsini-Jones (2009). The student implemented an experimental curricular intervention aimed at making formal grammar learning less troublesome for first year students.
