My Son's Teacher
Hi.
1. “He's better than me.”
2. “He's better than I.”
Which is very technically grammatically correct, and why? This is to prove (in print) that my twelve-year-old son's teacher was incorrect when she told him that me was correct.
Thank you.

He's better than me. He is better than I. Both are correct.
- He's better than me.
- He is better than I.
- Both are correct.
- Than can be either a preposition or a conjunction.
- The second is rather turgid.
