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.
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

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.
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. 😊
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.
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...
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
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.
the problem is not that she isn't a native. she doesn't check properly what she says. if you are a native speaker it doesn't automatically mean that you know the language really well and can teach it )
While being a native speaker of any language doesn't automatically make you a good teacher, a native speaker has an innate understanding of how the language works that a non-native speaker will never have.@@OlgaAnoshyna

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.😊😊
Another great video!
The videos you make about Giovana's mistakes are so useful and fun!!
Keep up the good work and correct as many as possible. XD
This time the mistakes are much worse. I learned a lot 👍
Love your content
i am so satisfied to learn English from a native speaker and authentic teacher . thank you Kevin.❤
Being a native speaker is no guarantee at all. Most native speaker make mistakes when speaking English.
I love it when those "teachers" make mistakes, because I have the opportunity to learn with Lisa or Kevin.
these kind of classes are the best on youtube, i would consider them gold
Real English🙌
Thank you for the laugh 🤣. Kevin keeps his face (rightfully) serious trying not to burst into a laughter.
I was thinking the same. He always keeps a straight face.
Thanks

Incredible how we can be fooled by those non native speaker, I try to limit my mistakes in English, so big thanks to Kevin and Lisa for your work.

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!
This video is hilarious 😂 😂😂 Love your channel!

Kevin R0cks ❤️... The only English teaching channel I prefer ... ❤
I wish you millions of subscribers! You really deserve it ❤🎉🤓💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Kevin, You know what, you'er really an extraordinary teacher.. I don't know what to say to you.
I can't thank you enough for your lessons!!
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.
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?
A question. Why do we say "cap and lid" (without articles) and not "a cap and a lid"?
Can you imagine telling everybody that “I screwed this cap” 😅
Thanks a lot :) I realy like your videos!
This channel is so much underrated guys!
It's rated very well, it's not underrated.
''' ...the opposite of screwing the cap is.." 🤣🙀🙉
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🤷🏻♀️😂
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. 😊
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😂
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What if I say, students confuse cap with lid
Kevin always brings us new interesting channels
Mediocre channels, calling themselves "teacher" without having anything to teach.
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.
Why no a before public transportation though? Need an explanation. What are other nouns that follow this rule?
I got that lady's point: "if it's bigger then you don't have to screw them"
It seems to me we have to use indefinite articles" a" before cap and lid, doesn't it?

Kevin, can we say "screw off" instead of "unscrew"?
No
You can say 'twist off'.
@@sophiedilmann3891 Thanks 🙏
I wonder if you don't get the copyright strike from the opposite party 😅.
However, I really appreciate your work. ❤❤❤
She totally screwed it up.
*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.
3:08 don't screw it up!
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

Hi . But what if I say Students confuse cap WITH lid.Is it sound correct?
That why it's not a very good idea to learn English from a non-native speaker. :)
She's so screwed.😂
I couldn't find a phrasal verb "screw on" in dictionaries.
You don’t have to screw them 😂
She most definitely screwed up, by letting everyone know that she intends to screw the cap 😂😂😅
Screw the cap! Sorry

How complicated English is.! UA-cam teachers think teaching is easy.
Kevin: Screw by itself means have sex
Me: OMG!! He said 'six' or really 'sex'😂
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??
U don't hafta screw 'em. Umm ... LMAOOOO
why non-native speakers want to teach English🌚
To earn money

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 😅
Oh gosh, she screwed it up
So. can I say: "Instead of screwing the cap onto the bottle, I screw it up". (?)
