Alright then. I'll add it on. I'll put a note to say that the ones written down are the person's strongest subjects. :yes:

I'll join! I'm relatively smart :P but my advanced classes are pretty hard. I don't think I have a particular strong point...*shrugs*

I'll join. I'm probably best at science, but english is also a strong point. I can also do math up to Algebra 2.

I'll join, Este. I'm an engineering major, so I have math (including and past calculus), lots of physics, chemistry, computer programming, and also english (lit. and composition), world history, and international relations/poli sci. Also some french, but there's probably people better than me. Plus I'm just a nerd.

This is a really good idea, btw.

Can I help? I think I'd be most helpful in English and History.

Thanks folks! :D

Hehe, I'm glad y'all like this idea. I just thought it might be good as everyone gets a bit puzzled sometimes.

I was going to say something really stupid.

I was going to say 'Why doesn't anyone have any questions yet' but then I remembered it's a weekend. :blush:

Oh, one more thing I'm good at! Going on 12 years of theology, I'm pretty good with Catholic Theology, so if some one has a question pertaining to that I can answer it.

That good thing about this club is people only need to come here if they need help, and if they want to help others. It's not somewhere where we're going to be like, "Where's ____, (s)he hasn't been doing her duty and coming to the club." Because the people who come here will have homework and we'll understand how busy you are. :)
Of course, poking your head in when possible is handy, as without that, people won't have their questions answered. :lol:

Yeah, theology is a pretty big one for me.
If I don't know it, my dad will. And even though I've had about 3 years of theology, I've had a lot crammed in those 3 years.

Me! Pick me, pick me, I have a question!
I know Estë will frown on me for my question-asking, but I'll dare it... :P

When should I use '...' and ".." inverted comma/quotation marks?
What is the difference?

:swoon: I won't!! It's a topic for asking questions! :roll:

Well. Here's my input on speech marks and quotation marks.

I use speech marks to show speech, as you'd expect. So, for example...

"I know Estë will frown on me for my question-asking, but I'll dare it..." Said Eä.


And quotation marks for quotes, taking something out of a piece of text which is not speech. For example...

'...many dyslexic children and teens have problems in some areas of maths...'


That's what I've always been taught. Even if you're quoting speech, you still use speech marks.

I could be wrong, of course, but that's what I've been taught. :yes:

I don't think so...You you quotation marks for both speech and quotes taken from sources, so that ...many dyslexic children and teens have problems in some areas of maths... would be in quotaion marks.

I'm not quite sure about inverted commas. I know you use them if you are using a letter. For example: I got a 'b' on my math test.
That's about all I know.

Thanks Estë.
Well, actually I was going to ask that Ellie... the thing with a single not-grammatically-correct word, like... er...
I wonder whether 'strawberryish' is a word.
I wonder whether "strawberryish" is a word.

*looks at sentences*
But in this case I think I would choose the first, which you call what..? Speech marks?

So my sentence would look like this used as an example (or quote):
"I wonder whether 'strawberryish' is a word."

But like this if found in a text/novel etc, indicating direct speech:
"I wonder whether 'strawberryish' is a word." said Eä
