 Re: Articles- "the" & "a"
One word of warning: this is a very difficult topic and native-like accuracy with articles is one of the last stages acquisition. Many people with excellent English never acquire it, yet are able to communicate perfectly well. What I'm saying is, I wouldn't spend too much time on the nuances, as you could probably make more progress elsewhere. Having said that, making sure they understand the broader rules is certainly worthwhile.
my 2 cents
