I just do not understand why would someone learn English from a non-native speaker when there are tons of materials available online, prepared by native speakers who are real teachers
@@janadominikacuz things are not always incorrect and nobody is perfect, neither are the teachers. I've been being taught by non-native ones and it's so fine
The moral of the story is if you are a non-native speaker, please hire a native speaker who can review your content before you post it on your social media platforms. Believe it or not, it is not as expensive as you think. Plus, if you don't do this, you are essentially doing a disservice to your students. Don't be greedy and be more willing to give the love and support that they deserve
I assume you don't even have to resort to a native speaker's help, if you proofread the content, spelling, pronunciation (stress placing), etc. several times. I can't help but admit that this isn't an easy task, but if you embark on such a journey, be ready to prepare only trustworthy materials. Besides, you'll be able to check your knowledge and learn new things, if possible.
1. we don't say: "To confuse between something and something" ❌️ but we say "To confuse something and something" ✅️ e.g. Students often confuse cap and lid. Or, Students often get confused between cap and lid. 2. we don't say "a public transportation"❌️ we say public transportation✅️ transportation is uncountable 3. we don't say "To screw the cap"❌️ we use the phrasal verb "To screw on" To screw the cap ❌️ To screw the cap on, To screw the cap on ✅️ 4. We don't say the verb "To uncap"❌️, it's not common we say to *unscrew* the cap ✅️ Common verbs: put on the cap, take off the cap.
About "confuse between", in the beginning of your explanation I thought it was a very light mistake, not to be noticeable, but I realized that in Portuguese (my mother tongue - and hers too) it is also very weird to say "As pessoas confundem entre x e y" ("People confuse between x and y"). The right sentence is "As pessoas confundem x e y". The same way, it is right to say "As pessoas ficam confusas entre x e y" ("People get confused between cap and lid").

That's stupid advice. Come here, come closer, come get some - nothing wrong with that. Your teacher must be horny to think of "something else" hearing this verb.
It's incredible that I'm able to detect the mistakes she makes because when I translate the expressions into Spanish, even in Spanish they are incorrect and sound weird.
Not really. I'm a Brazilian teacher and I can notice and correct a lot of her mistakes. So, It's really weird for a teacher to go online teaching wrong collocations and stuff. I guess they're not 'professional teachers'
That's not true. Native speakers of any language have an innate knowledge of their mother tongue. They don't need to stop and think about which forms or tenses to use, all without "studying" grammar or sentence structure. A competent non-native teacher may be better at explaining the rules of grammar, but they will never be as agile in the language as a native speaker. I have watched non-native speakers on YT that I would've sworn were native speakers, but there's almost always something that gives them away. They're still excellent, and a non-native would probably never know they were watching a non-native teacher. I'm learning two languages now and know I'll never be as good as a native speaker in either of them. And that's ok with me. I'm always trying to improve my skills in my native language. I think language learning is a life-long project.@@dannyjorde2677
BTW this whole phenomenon of people with a very poor command of English pretending to be teachers really illustrates an important aspect of our post-postmodern life... We do not recognize the value of sound education and years of practice.(And we do not see where it is more than clearly missing.) Enyone can become "an expert" on anything just by taking a quick course and setting up a YT channel using effective matketing strategies. And most of the viewers would buy it The blindness and inability to discern quality actually startles me...
Hello Kevin. Hope you're doing well. I would like to ask. What if I say "students are confused between cap and lid"? Instead of using the word "get," I use "are". Are they exactly the same? Thank you so much. 😊
Missenglishtea Is the name of the Channel of this girl I ve been told,and I ve been told She has changed the name of her Channel as with her previous name She was accused by many to teach English not correctly,many people said She should take lessons by a real good native or She should close her account,It Is not right that she keeps teaching not correct English.
Thanks a lot for correcting non-native English speakers, teaching wrongly. I bet most of them are Brazilians who live in the US and believe they were born there.

U are totally right.
You don't have to hire anyone, you just need to check and double check the inforomation. It's not that hard, but they are just lazy.

No, I am a learner, and I wake up at midnight. I don't need to hire anyone to correct my post .
Excelente comment, buddy. I completely agree with you.😊😊
Amazing! I trust you only with my English, most channels I was following are present with great mistakes in your videos! I can't trust them anymore!
It’s just so fortunate that we’ve got someone who can give a helping hand and do all the much needed corrections. Thank you so very much ❤!
Thanks a lot :) I realy like your videos!
This is full of useful content.
Kevin, You know what, you'er really an extraordinary teacher.. I don't know what to say to you.
I wish you millions of subscribers! You really deserve it ❤🎉🤓💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
1. we don't say: "To confuse between something and something" ❌️
but we say "To confuse something and something" ✅️
e.g. Students often confuse cap and lid. Or, Students often get confused between cap and lid.
2. we don't say "a public transportation"❌️
we say public transportation✅️ transportation is uncountable
3. we don't say "To screw the cap"❌️
we use the phrasal verb "To screw on"
To screw the cap ❌️
To screw the cap on, To screw the cap on ✅️
4. We don't say the verb "To uncap"❌️, it's not common
we say to *unscrew* the cap ✅️
Common verbs: put on the cap, take off the cap.

''' ...the opposite of screwing the cap is.." 🤣🙀🙉
I remember as my English teacher told me not to use the verb come by itself too, she said it means something else and it sounds strange 😊
That's stupid advice. Come here, come closer, come get some - nothing wrong with that. Your teacher must be horny to think of "something else" hearing this verb.
Kevin always brings us new interesting channels
Mediocre channels, calling themselves "teacher" without having anything to teach.
Thank you for the lesson! Very informative!
But please can you explain why in the first example you didn't put the article before two countable nouns?
This channel is so much underrated guys!
It's rated very well, it's not underrated.
*Put on the cap* or *take off the cap* it's easier 😁
"Put the cap on" and "take the cap off" may also be easier, but "screw on" and "unscrew" are better, IMO.
Can you imagine telling everybody that “I screwed this cap” 😅
3:08 don't screw it up!
It's incredible that I'm able to detect the mistakes she makes because when I translate the expressions into Spanish, even in Spanish they are incorrect and sound weird.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks, very helpful
What does it mean when someone says 'screw you', I here this one a lot in movies and series?
I am curious about it too😂
Does it literally mean...what it means🤷🏻♀️😂
A question. Why do we say "cap and lid" (without articles) and not "a cap and a lid"?
Really, you have to be a native speaker to avoid many small and big mistakes. There is no other way. Thank you,
Not really. I'm a Brazilian teacher and I can notice and correct a lot of her mistakes. So, It's really weird for a teacher to go online teaching wrong collocations and stuff. I guess they're not 'professional teachers'
That's not true. Many non-native speakers have even more knowledge of the language than many native speakers.
@@dannyjorde2677 That's true
@@dannyjorde2677No, they don’t.

Why no a before public transportation though? Need an explanation. What are other nouns that follow this rule?

What if I say, students confuse cap with lid
Kevin, can we say "screw off" instead of "unscrew"?
No
You can say 'twist off'.
@@sophiedilmann3891 Thanks 🙏
I got that lady's point: "if it's bigger then you don't have to screw them"
That why it's not a very good idea to learn English from a non-native speaker. :)
Screw them 😂😂😂. I remember when I played a video game GTA San andreas, CJ kept telling this phrase like "Screw you" meaning "F*ck you".
Exactly😂
It seems to me we have to use indefinite articles" a" before cap and lid, doesn't it?
Hello Kevin. Hope you're doing well. I would like to ask. What if I say "students are confused between cap and lid"? Instead of using the word "get," I use "are". Are they exactly the same? Thank you so much. 😊
She totally screwed it up.
She's so screwed.😂
How complicated English is.! TH-cam teachers think teaching is easy.
You don’t have to screw them 😂
I couldn't find a phrasal verb "screw on" in dictionaries.

Hi . But what if I say Students confuse cap WITH lid.Is it sound correct?
She most definitely screwed up, by letting everyone know that she intends to screw the cap 😂😂😅
Kevin: Screw by itself means have sex
Me: OMG!! He said 'six' or really 'sex'😂
Screw the cap! Sorry
These so called teachers ,should hire Kevin to review their videos before posting
What's wrong with screwing the cap? (pun intended)
If there's only on thing like sun or sea etc... We have to use the so why most of the people say heaven not the heaven or earth not the earth??
Woo who dont screw up in the life? I am going to screw my bottle onf wine on now, it is Friday :)
U don't hafta screw 'em. Umm ... LMAOOOO
Oh gosh, she screwed it up
❤❤❤
Thanks a lot for correcting non-native English speakers, teaching wrongly. I bet most of them are Brazilians who live in the US and believe they were born there.
Why Brazilians?
Hope Giovanna notices how she screwed up:)))).with all this cap screwing and unscrewing commented in her poor English.😂😂😂
😂😂😂 He should've said she instead of he
Kevin: Did she screw up! (Long pause)
Kevin: That's right, she did screw up 😅
