English is so hard to learn that even native speakers argue over whether it's "who" or "whom"—and then just avoid the sentence altogether by saying, "That guy!"
My seventh grade teacher taught us two "Indian" names: iweheshetheywho and meushimherthemwhom. So for me, my hair stands on end when someone tries to be literate and says "He is the guy whom taught me english", which sounds exactly as bad as "me learned a lot today".
