The money was given (to) me.
According to my teacher, in the sentence above, you can omit the preposition "to". Without the preposition, the sentence sounds somewhat strange and unnatural to me. How does it sound to you? Do you think you may (have) use(d) such a structure?
The money was given me. vs The money was given to me.
