"use ce que when followed by a subject pronoun (je/tu/il etc)" this statement is in the lesson.

When I did a test, I answered one wrong because the correct answer was;

Nous ne savons pas ce qui tu fais

Could you please explain this?

Si versus tellement

Both si and tellement are used for so.  Are thee interchangeable or is there a preferred context for use?

why is 'du' used for Alana est descendu du train juste a temps?the instructions prior says 'de' becomes 'du' when followed by le or les - neither of which occurs in this example. is it because train is masculine? and the du train replaces 'de le train'? It's a bit unclear given de l' is used in the example with masculine noun l'avion - 'Aurelie descend de l'avion'. thank you

Backwards

I seem to be going backwards, losing confidence by the day with this lesson.  Very disappointed in the content and exercises.  This system of questions seems to be hurting me more than helping,

It’s like the rules change every time I read this lesson.

Regretting paying for a whole year.......

"Il n'aime pas la critique." Why doesn't "la" become "de"here?Since after negations, definite articles become de. (With the exception of être as the verb).

Je me suis fait brosser les cheveux. Comment ça se fait que la réponse soit dans le troisième personne singulier et ne pas dans la première personne singulier? J'ai écrit < Je me suis fais brosser les cheveux. J'ai dû manquer quelque chose. J'ai lu la leçon et je l'ai relu. Je ne peux pas le comprendre.

Sound the same?Is there any difference in pronunciation between Ils s'assoient and Il
s'assoit if the following word starts with a consonant? If not, how can you tell which is meant if the context doesn't make it clear?
