よくある間違い：
Learners often confuse "instruct" with "teach" and use it in very casual situations (e.g., "He instructed me where the bus stop is"). In everyday conversation, "tell" is usually more natural. Also, learners sometimes say "instruct to someone" instead of the correct pattern "instruct someone to do something".
