That's the reason why my Spanish Professors stress that whenever we visit
the facilitators (native speakers), that we are not to ask them grammar
questions. Mostly because they don't know much about the grammar and that
they just know how to speak it.

They say the facilitators are do not know the finer points of Spanish
grammar (which is true, as most I know are not language majors). If we
have grammar questions we are to go to the tutors.
