What is the difference between star and sea? When is star used?

both 'estar' and 'set' mean 'to be', however they are not used interchangeably. Estar is used to describe a feeling or location. For example: Estoy en su casa OR estoy muy triste. But ser is used when something is more permanent. For example:Soy una chica OR soy profesora de español
