Questions
What is the difference between present simple and present continuous?
Use the present simple for habits and facts: "She works in a bank." Use the present continuous for actions happening now or around now: "She is working from home today."
When do I use the present perfect?
Use it to connect the past with now. It is common for life experience, recent news or things that are not finished. For example: "I have visited Rome" or "She has lost her keys."
How can I practise English tenses?
Start with one tense at a time and do a short quiz. Check each answer and read why it is right. Then try mixed tenses, where you must choose the right form yourself. Write your own sentences, too.
