Improve speaking skill with studying Grammar (using present tense)

In other hand, grammar could improve our speaking skill to be better in our sentence. Now, how the way to do it? Let's check below

Here the Ways :
• Activity a :
  make a small group to study and discuss about present tense, then share what the kind and difficult from present tense. Like : memorizing the formula of present tense with another friend
• Activity b :
  write a brief autobiographical paragraph telling who you are and your family. Describe your life and the structure of your family by using present tense.
  Example : I am Diana. My hobby is traveling. Everybody says that I am beautiful, because I have baby face, my nose is sharp, and my hair is black shine. I have big lovely family. They are my mother, my father, my grand mother, my grand father, my young brother, my aunt, my uncle and my cousin. My parents have 2 child. They are my young brother and me. My young brother's name is Ariel. I have another young brother, he is my cousin, and his name is Reza. He is my uncle child. My mother and my uncle are my grandfather child. I love my grandfather and my grandmother, because they always visit me in boarding school.
• Activity c :
  don't forget to demonstrate your writing about family to your friend by using the creative media, like using wayang for describing your life and your family's structure. This wayang includes your picture and your family picture.
