Quick English Grammar Tips: Me or I?

You can correct your grammar mistakes in English... 

1.  Me and Tim, Tim and I

Wrong: Me and Tim are going to a movie tonight.
Right: Tim and I are going to a movie tonight.
Why?
If you take Tim out of the sentence, "you" are the subject. You are going to a movie. When you're going to a movie, what do you say?
"I am going to a movie."
You wouldn't say, "Me am going to a movie."
When you add Tim, the sentence construction remains the same. You're simply adding Tim, and it's correct to say the other person's name first.
"Tim and I are going to a movie."
Your test is always to take the other person out of the sentence, decide on "I" or "me," and then put the other person back in.
