THIS IS A CLASSIC SPANGLISH MISTAKE: "ACTUALLY"
I probably hear this mistake every single day so it is worth taking a few minutes to think about it. Most Spanish people use the word "actually" in this way: "Last year I had English classes but actually I am not having any". This is wrong because the word the word that is needed in this case is "currently". So the correct version would be "Last year I had English classes but currently (or "at the moment") I am not having any. The meaning of "actually" in Spanish is "realmente". Hope that helps!
