CONVENTIONS OF COMPOSITION

I've been working on this website as a self-help-for-grammar page. I hope you find it useful.

  • If you're a teacher: use these numbers to mark student essays. Your students can look up the numbers to learn how to avoid repeating errors.
  • If you're a writer/student: look up the errors you know you make to learn how to avoid repeating them.

PURDUE'S PAGE ROCKS

For everyone who wants to write right, I recommend the Purdue University OWL page. It works especially well to explain common errors that second (or third or more) language learners make.

When I need to check my stuff, I look here.

WHAT I DO

I teach English to high schoolers at a boarding school in Connecticut. I read AP English Literature and Composition exams and serve as a teacher mentor for the University of Pennsylvania Teaching Fellows program. I’m working on earning a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing.

As a writer, I hope to capture the complexity and joy of life in the New England boarding school world. On this site, I share what I know about trying to write fiction while teaching English, coaching, and doing the other tasks associated with helping to raise over six hundred other people’s children.
