Se nos enseña - we are taught; se me dice - I am told
 
What are the constructions "se nos" and "se me" known as? Some special type of reflexive pronouns? I would like to learn more about phrases like this, but I don't know what to google! I don't understand how they work, I have very basic understanding. To me, "se nos enseña" reads as "he teaches us" not "we are taught". I am confused.

¿Qué son las construcciones "se nos" y "se me" conocido como? Algunos tipo especial de pronombres reflexivos? Me gustaría aprender más sobre frases como esto, pero no sé qué google! No entiendo cómo funcionan, tengo conocimiento muy básico. Para mí, "se nos Enseña" dice así "he teaches us" no "we are taught". Estoy confundido.

There is no way a construction with "se nos enseña" would include a "he" in the translation. You might find this discussion useful.

:thinking: You are trying to translate word for word, and that very rarely works for learning a language. Try very basic sentences first; otherwise you'll find very difficult to follow some structures and your Spanish won't be understood either.
