"who" is the subject and "whom" is the object form that �s why it often appears with "to" or any other preposition ...

Thanks a lot dear.
I know its uses but I wanted a simple way to ex[lain this grammar to students who are 13 years old.
I meant you teaching method in teaching who or whom
 
By the way many thanks for generous and helpful people .
I don �t mind other people who don �t like to give help without being rude

Quoted from one of the pages above:

Ask yourself if the answer to the question would be he or him. If you can answer the question with him, then use whom. It �s easy to remember because they both end with "m". If you can answer the question with he, then use who.
  • Example: A suitable answer to the question, "To [who or whom] did the prize go?" is, "It went to him." (It is improper to say "It went to he.") The correct pronoun for the question is whom.
  • Example: A suitable answer to the question, "[Who or Whom] went to the store?" is, "He went to the store." (It is improper to say "Him went to the store.") The correct pronoun for the question who.

That is the easiest way to teach the difference... Also "whom" is being used less and less and is now considered quite "formal". "Who" will soon be the new "whom"! Wink

You know britishschwa that for someone from the Cayman Islands, (a British Territory)  you certainly express yourself strangely. Are you really a native speaker??
