I get confused with Kris' mom or Kris's mom?
Both are right. It's a matter of preference. Chris's = Chris'; Thomas's = Thomas'; James's = James', and so on.

is it wrong to use both british and american when writing essays? because i learnt american but i like to use british more and because both are a bit confusing since both are almost the same, i always mix the two.
No, it's not wrong to mix the two. However, don't switch the way you spell a particular word. For example, don't write "color" in one sentence and then write "colour" in another.
"if i were you", is this correct? if so, then how about "if i was your boyfriend"?

Can you explain more on. "If I were born" Why we need to use "were" instead of "was"
In your example, it should be "If I HAD BEEN born ..." Here is when to use "I were," "she were," "he were," and "it were" (i.e., the subjunctive mood): http://bit.ly/1pWL29H
how about besides and beside?
which one is correct "that is maya's pens" or "that is mayas' pens"? This got me confused everytime. Thank you :)
Actually, it should be "THOSE ARE Maya's pens." You could also say "THOSE PENS are Maya's." ("Pens" is plural, so we need "Those are." "That is" is for singular nouns.) ✌️

Thank you for being my invisible teachers. I really appreciate it. My grammar is okay?
Yes, it is. (And you're welcome.) 👍
Practice or practise?

When should I use Arabic / Arabian / Arab? Thanks.
"Arabic" is the language. "Arab" can be an adjective ("Arab customs," "Arab countries") or a noun that means "Arab individual" ("Six Arabs were at the conference"). "Arabian" is used with horses, ("Arabian horse"), Saudi Arabia ("Saudi Arabian culture"), or the stories "The Arabian Nights."

What is were? And how to use it in sentence?
"Were" is the past tense of "be" for "I," "you," "we," "they," and plural nouns: They WERE sick yesterday. We WERE amazed by Nan's piano performance. WERE you mad at me yesterday?
"Were" is also the verb we use for the SUBJUNCTIVE MOOD. For an explanation of this tricky topic, read this: http://bit.ly/1pWL29H

"on my journey to a good life, i took so many pictures" is it true?
It works. You could also say "I have taken many pictures on my journey toward a good life."
how to differentiate the usage of "forget" and "forgot"?
"Forgot" is just the past tense of "forget":
- I never forget my mom's birthday.
- Jo forgot to do her homework yesterday.
- I never forget my mom's birthday.
- Jo forgot to do her homework yesterday.

What is d difference between adore and admire? Etc, i adore them very much. I wanna say i ship them
"Admire" is about respect. You admire your heroes. "Adore" is about love. You adore your children. If you are talking about shipping a couple, then you'd use "adore." ❤️

Yes.
how to use 's' in back of word ? do you get what i mean ?
For nouns, "s" turns most singular nouns into plural nouns, e.g., cat → cats; dog → dogs; book → books. Verbs that end in "s" is the present tense form for "it," "he," "she," and singular nouns (besides "I" and "you"): She LIKES coffee; Nan DRINKS tea; Peter READS books.

are you that type of people or are you that type of person? which one is correct?
"Are you that (singular) type (singular) of person (singular)?" is right. If you're asking a bunch of people, then "Are you those (plural) types (plural) of people (plural)?" would be right.

is "i'd gladly appreciate it" grammatically correct?
It is grammatically correct, but most people don't say it that way. Most people say "I'd GREATLY appreciate it."
