Learners sometimes confuse 'rebellious' with 'revolting'. 'Rebellious' means resisting rules or authority, while 'revolting' usually means disgusting. Also, to describe a person you say 'He is rebellious' or 'He is a rebellious child', not 'He is rebel' (that would need the article: 'He is a rebel').
