[✐2. Andante] (ひとが)Vて+くれます、(ひと)にVて+もらいますimplying a sense of gratitude for receiving actions : Actually, Japanese tend to use often these expressions.

How do you explain the difference between “トムさんが わたしに えいごをおしえます” and “トムさんが わたしに えいごをおしえてくれます“ ? The first one simply tells the fact that Tom san teaches me English, and the latter adds my gratitude to it. I would say it’s almost like, “He is kind enough to teach me English”.
