is next after you

Post by ansonman »

(1) Do you know who is next after you to read poetry?

Most of my non-native English speaking friends have found two mistakes. First of all, "next after you" is redundant, and "who is" should be "who WILL BE".

My other friends don't agree with them. Please help me. Thank you.
