When to use 选/收 + Person + 当/做/为 for “Choose Someone As”
This is another pivot sentence: the middle person is the object of 选 or 收, and also the one who takes the role after 当/做/为. 选 means choose or elect: 大家选他当班长 (everyone chose him as class monitor). 收 means accept someone into a group or as a student: 王老师收他做学生. The role word comes last. Use 当 or 做 in speech; 为 (pronounced wéi) sounds formal and fits notices and reports: 我们班选李明为代表.
我们选小王做代表。
We chose Xiao Wang as our representative.
我们班选李明为代表。
Our class chose Li Ming as its representative.
王老师很喜欢他，收他做学生。
Mr. Wang liked him a lot and took him on as a student.

Erros comuns
- Put the person right after 选/收: 选他当班长, not 选当班长他.
- Use 当, 做 or 为 before the role, not 是: 选小王当代表, not 选小王是代表.
- 为 here is read wéi, not wèi.
