I'm a little confused about how to use quotation marks. Can you give me some pointers?

Sure! Quotation marks are used to indicate that a word or phrase is being used as a direct quote from another source. For example, if I said "I love chocolate ice cream," and then someone else wrote that exact same sentence in their own book, they would need to use quotation marks around the words "chocolate ice cream" so that it was clear that they were not saying those words themselves.
