	I am teaching English to a bunch of foreign people from all over the world. While this is a really fun volunteering job, I'm nervous. I keep forgetting specific placements of words, or not understanding fully how things are used. Can we discuss different aspects of grammar here, or do you know of a book I can purchase to help? I really don't want to lead all of these wonderful, trusting foreign people astray.

	Can you be more specific when you mean "placement of words"?

I really don't want to lead all of these wonderful, trusting foreign people astray. As in word order in sentences? I may write it naturally, with 80-97% accuracy, but the details and specifics I don't really care about. confused In other words, you got me.
