I saw this:

> アンさんはべんきょうをおしえるひとです。

Is this a correct sentence? I got confused with おしえる人. I thought we cannot
follow a verb with another noun without nominalizing it with either の or こと.
Should this be おしえるの人?

Nominalized verb without の or こと
In general, it is safe to use a verb directly before a noun. There is no
modification needed. If you add の after a verb, you turn it into a noun. Two
nouns cannot be connected directly, there has to be a の inbetween, as in 私の本.

This is a very important construction called a _relative clause_.

> [教]{おし}える[人]{ひと}  
>  a person who teaches

The rule is described in detail in this question: [Relative clauses

which/that](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/q/14541/5010)
