she's her

[allthewayanime]

Could I say instead of 'That's her' , 'She's her'?

[Tdol]

I definitely wouldn't.

If you've already said 'She's...' before you realize you can't say '...her', you could say '...the one/the person/the girl...'

The previous posts are of course quite correct, however there are certain idoms and sayings which would use 'she's her' such as, she's her own worst enemy and she's her own person.

Of course. The word 'her' is possessive there, and couldn't be directly followed by a full stop/period.

How can you be a TEFL student if you are a native English speaker?

How can you be a TEFL student if you are a native English speaker?

If you hold the cursor over 'TEFL' in Sherie's post, you'll see.

It reads Teaching English as a Foreign Language. Doesn't it mean that you are a teacher?

Or if you are a student then how could you learn English as a foreign language when you are a native speaker?

One trains to be a teacher. During the period of training, one might be referred to as a trainee (teacher) or student (teacher).

If I am undergoing training to become a teacher, can I be called as student? because I thought only those who learn are called as students not who getting trained.


For example,

I am an engineering student.

But not

I am a teacher student.(?)

I am a teacher trainee.
