Miner and witness are two very different way to produce blocks. What are blocks and a blockchain? Well it's all mentioned in the article I linked below.
Yes, I was not meaning to confuse the 2, just give her the basics and similarities of the 2 since these terms are often used interchangeably in the Crypto eco system with differences btw them all and the coding/functions etc.
