On Location: Theory and Practice in Classroom-Based Writing Tutoring

Classroom-based writing tutoring is a distinct form of writing support, a hybrid instructional method that engages multiple voices and texts within the college classroom. Tutors work "on location," in the thick of writing instruction and writing activity.

On Location is the first volume to discuss this emerging practice in a methodical way. The essays in this collection integrate theory and practice to highlight the alliances and connections on-location tutoring offers while suggesting strategies for resolving its conflicts. Contributors examine classroom-based tutoring programs located in composition courses as well as in writing intensive courses across the disciplines.

An Advanced English Course for foreign Student

The Course  begins with the treatment of the anomalous finites, followed by that of the ordinary verbs. In the study of the latter, the uses of the preterite and perfect tenses have received special attention. One lesson has been devoted entirely to the special difficulties of the present habitual and present progressive forms. With regard to "shall" and "will," I have avoided the temptation of trying to over-simplify the problem. The infinitive, another stumbling-block, has been treated in an original and effective way, by analysing its functions, rather than by relying on long lists to be learnt by heart.
