Classes taught
ENG 271 Practical English Grammar: Designed for students intending to teach, this course focuses on teaching grammar in the context of writing. A broad review of parts of speech, the syntax of complex sentences, and the conventions of standard usage will be supplemented by attention to the relation between standard and non-standard dialects, as well as to dealing with dialect differences in the classroom and written work. Graded work includes exams, tutoring, teaching a mini-lesson, and the maintenance of a journal of observed usage.
